Pics Taken After Tornado
What a storm.....
Tuesday, April 12, 2011 by RedneckDude | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
This first pic was't taken by me. This is the Walmart across the highway from my house. Maybe 1/4 mile from me.
This is my son holding some hail. This is ping pong ball sized, we later got some golf ball sized.
This is a usually dry area in my backyard. We got 3" of rain in less than an hour.
More backyard.
This happened about 3 miles from my house.

WOW ... Does this happen often?
Could not imagine myself living in a Tornado zone

Sort of puts my 'I'm having a bad day' into perspective.

We're all ok. No, it don't happen often, thank God. It was kind of exciting, and yet scary at the same time. (Xiandi loves this stuff...lol.)
My dogs were very scared, one was shaking badly. My son was pretty torn up, at first.
I guess it was the worst storm I have ever actually been in. I have always been fascinated with tornados. I would love to be a storm chaser.

Did you see the movie Twister? Now that was scary. I've seen videos of Tornadoes sweeping across the landscape. The power inside one of those things is amazing. Good thing they left you alone. I don't want to hear we're not in Kansas anymore.

Walmart is a well known tornado magnet. All kidding aside, I'm so glad you and yours weren't harmed...but having a 'twistered' sense of humor, I couldn't resist... I should be ashamed.....but I'm not.

Doc...you're a freak 
...but i love your kind of humor, 'cause i'm a freak too

A sense of humor is priceless in the wake of Mother Nature's fury. If I ever find myself looking at one of those things I think I'll either soil my britches or laugh myself silly thinking of Doc's rendition of RnD's yard sale.

You should see me when we have a strong storm around here... I perk right up, lol! Lightning, thunder, high winds, hail...LOVE IT! I lived in Oklahoma for a while, and the storms we got there were amazing!
I'm glad you and your family are all safe, Jim.
