Vickie,
I saw on the news about the devasting twisters up in your neck of the woods(Wisconsin), how close did they get to you & if too close are you ok? I hope you are, sis!!
Icey
I hope everyone who lived in the path of these that hit this week are ok!!
Tornados
Indeed, as for someone having been through those things here in Ohio, I hope you are ok too Vickie.
We had the high wind here, and heavy rain.

And what am I, Chopped liver?
Hell, I was WAY closer to the action than Vickie was, as in… about 5 miles away.
Yeesh. I see how it is.
Re: Tornados
I did say this, Orms!!
Sorry, I didn’t know you lived in Wisconsin!!
hugs
Orms, I hope you are ok as well!!
Tornados
Me too. As someone who has seen a tornado, let’s say they are no fun.
I’ve seen one and that’s enough for me.

You are more than welcome, Vickie!! I wouldn’t be a good sister if I didn’t ask, now would I!!
Tornados
Like I said, one was enough for me… but I would not mind chasing one sometime. Get some of the footage that I’ve seen on TV.
Tornadoes have been a minor obsession of mine ever since I saw my tornado in 1984 in north central Ohio. I can still remember the awe when I first saw it.

I wasn’t near any of the tornadoes, 80 to 110 miles, although one of my brothers was about 10 miles from one them. I did get about 2.25" of rain though.

You know Val, I swear I saw them try that thing out once and it just got battered to hell.
Tornados
I had rain, and wind here. I watched it all from my high rise apartment.

Did anyone hear about the tornado that occurred in Washington? I was pretty shocked it happened.
Tornados
Tornadoes can happen anywhere in the US. I’ve seen tornadoes erupt in downtown Nashville, Salt Lake City…. They can happen anywhere if the weather is right for them. I’m waiting for one to hit Dallas or San Antonio in Texas some day.

No Chris lets not hope that one hits there my brother is a Police officer down there and he was working throught the one just north of Round Rock Texas which is just north of Austin back in the 90’s and he almost got caught in that one so please let’s hope that everyone stays safe and out of their path….
Tornados
What, why? :shock:
Tornados
I think he literally meant ‘waiting’ not hoping.
Tornados
Because, those two cities are smack dab in the middle of tornado alley in Texas. They’ve been spared so far, but you never know what Mother Nature can do. I’ve seen what they can do in person, and to be honest I don’t wanna see them destroyed by a twister.
Just waiting for what I call the inevitable.
