So, we decided to head down to Kentucky for their statewide tornado drill again this year. We settled on one of Frankfort's 'bolts this time, and we carpooled Alex and Benicio with us. Unfortunately, the weather was nothing like we were hoping for, but at least there was no severe weather threat, so they still went through with the drill, thankfully. In all honesty, I was pretty disappointed by the 1 minute alert cycle, as we were hoping they'd do 3 minutes of attack like they do for tornado warnings. On the bright side, I do think my videos came out pretty decent, all things considered. After this, we went to the Banshee in Clermont County, but unfortunately, their FSK tone-out wasn't working, which caused a good chunk of their system (including the Banshee) to not sound. Needless to say, this day definitely did not go like we were hoping, but at least we got something out of it.
