Tornado (update pictures from today)

Here's one that I can personally guarantee is real. It came down about 2 hours ago here where I live and brought golf ball and baseball sized hail with it.

That last pic was very interesting. Hope you didn't have too much damage.

Those with religion pray, those that don't have, suddenly get it.


When most people think of "tornado ally" they think of Kansas, Texas, or Oklahoma. We get more than our share here and are usually worse because we are more populated. Several years ago, I had to shop around for a new insurance company, because the one I had, pulled out of Arkansas because of the weather. They weren't the only ones, as there were several that followed.

i know that the alley has moved further north here,, seems like the last few years that alot of them move up into tennessee... that normally would cross from Mississippi west to east, and fizzle out in north Georgia

we have been hit by 2 in the last 3 1/2 years. The first one took my 40x60 shed. The second one took a 40x40 shed. Damage to the house both times. The second one ripped a halter off the horse. had to sell the horse since it went plum crazy after that episode. Wife says if we get a third one we are moving.

That looks frightening, sure glad they don't touch down where we are. and Glad you are all OK. Think I'd think about moving to if they were that often.
