“When you told me you used to chase tornadoes, deep down I thought it was just a metaphor”
I moved to Florida last November. Not really tornado country, but I’m sure I’ll eventually be hit by one of those giant swirly thingies with some person’s name that comes off the ocean.
A lot of stupidity in that movie.
There is still plywood covering the windows of buildings and houses all over Belle Fourche.
She’s building one of those a Pole Barn houses and she survived last winter in a camper inside of a shed, LOL!
She’s tough, that girl! She DOES hate the rain, though. She tells me every week, LOL!
WOW! Quite the temperature swing!
Well...yeah
Falling farm equipment.
Truck windshield smashed.
Next scene.... windshield undamaged.
I think the worst she had it was a -8 this past winter. In her camper. In a shed. She’s in Montrose, Population: 458. SE corner of the state.
Our Cow Town is only 288, so she’s moved to The Big City, LOL!
She won’t share any toilet paper either!!!
It is a foreshadowing of the huge amounts of green we must spend to fight global warming!
My memory of that huge Midwest outbreak was medevac Hueys flying into / out of Ireland Army Hospital at Fort Knox with casualties from Brandenburg, KY, which was hit nearly as hard as Xenia. Our quarters were a 6-8 minute walk to the hospital, I could see it from my back yard. I was a teenager.
Yep
Yup. See it often in Oklahoma. Learned very quickly it was time to go to the “fraidy hole” when the sky turned green.
We’ve actually gotten below zero in Maryland (where I lived previously), although that hasn’t happened in recent years. Yes, we are warming a bit, but I’m not a catastrophist about it; that manmade CO2 is also plant food. We’re actually greening some of the deserts along with raising the temperature a bit.
And we still have winters, and they’re still miserable.
UNLESS it’s cut off halfway up by the bayonet chainsaw of a polar vortex.
This is what causes the feared donkey-punching screw hurricane to spawn.
Or so I’m told.
I am from Minnesota and I told my cousin out here several years ago in California about seeing green skies back there when tornadoes are in the area. She did not believe me. I sent her photos.
