The tornado warnings may be new to those from certain areas of the country but we from the midwest had them our whole lives. We keep a wary eye and ear on the weather but we probably don't get QUITE as worried as the folks who haven't had those warnings for years.

I hope you get used to it and you won't worry so much.

There will be far more warnings than tornadoes.

Your plants are used to the water. The mulch can be replaced. Try not to worry.
So far there have been no tornado warnings. We have been and continue to be under a tornado WATCH which means conditions are favorable for the development of tornados. A warning is more serious than a watch. And as someone who was here in 2007 and heard that freight train sound coming through Mallory, I take both watches and warnings seriously.
