Eerie Gut Feelings That Ended Up Saving People’s Lives

Narrowly-Avoided Disaster

My now-wife and I did the long-distance thing in college, and I planned on doing my normal routine to visit her, where I would leave Chicago in the morning and get to her in the early afternoon on Friday.

Well, I’m closing my store on Thursday night, and get a feeling I should just leave that night. So I said alright and left right away.

A little after lunch on Friday, tornado sirens go off. I don’t think anything of it until I head back home Sunday and drive through a town about a half-hour north of her. It got lit up by the tornado. 

That’s when I realized. If I had left at my normal time, I would’ve been smack dab in the middle of the tornado.
