So there is a tornado warning by my house and apparently a foot and a half of water with a nice flash flood warning. Should I go home after work or just sleep at work tonight and not even try to ride through it? lol

Plan on parking the bike (on higher ground, preferably). And catch a ride home with someone else. It's possible the water could recede in a few hours, and it's also possible it could be WORSE in the morning, and won't be passable then either.

Good luck and be safe!

Don't risk it, if you go down in that body of water, think of what it will do to your bike, if water gets into that engine? pfft, park it on high ground, like they've said earlier. Just a common sense sort of thing to do.
