I left my cover from the library and stood under an overhang for a while. The rain was falling very hard and only getting harder, so I put my backpack on my head and ran down a hill, across a street, and into the parking lot where I had parked. I was drenched when I got in the van. My phone then started buzzing with more tornado warnings for my county and I didn't have WiFi now so I couldn't check where they were. I started the van and left the campus and parked in a McDonald's lot to tap into their WiFi. The warnings weren't exactly on top of me, but they were much closer. My mom then called and I told her my situation, and she told me to just make a run for it.
I skipped town just as the sirens started going off and headed northwest. The sky grew insanely dark - to the point where I literally needed my headlights (which were on anyway) in order to see the road. I kept driving until the end of the highway and exited the northwest portion of the storm, which was now behind me. I kept looking underneath the flattened cloud base to try to see anything interesting, but there was none. I'm home now, and the sun is out with the blackened clouds looming to the west. A tornado warning is still in effect for the southwestern counties.
