There’s this on the net about it. Pretty cool and I do believe it’s real and one can never be too sure these days.

“One of the most famous tornado pictures in history was snapped on this day in 1989.

Marilee Thomas of Beaver City, Nebraska, took this picture of her daughter in front of a tornado in Furnas County. The tornado produced minor damage to farms, and the “tornado girl” photo went on to win second place in a national contest.”

Wait, isn’t a gentleman supposed to remove his hat before kissing a lady?

I would love to get a wedding shot in front of a nuke blast.

Yep. Another tidbit: a girl/woman taking your cowboy hat and putting it on herself is a sign of affection. My wife took mine when I was 16 and out it on...and we've been together ever since.

A lot better view of things when you take those forests and mountains down! Its just bigger than normal dust devil. They had time to get things done and its not like they had to worry about it knocking any trees over! A lot of dust in the distance. Probably have to dry clean that wedding dress! :)

(Bet you can pick up a section of land pretty cheaply! Not sure about the water though!)

That newscaster was a hefty heifer too.
IN here. We had two, three tornado warnings this spring.
I’m digging a hole before it freezes this fall.
My grandparents in OK had one that served as a preserves, root cellar and twister shelter.
Tornados are land sharks that come looking for you.
