I just survived my first Kansas tornado

[lepfan]

...a small one---lots of tree limbs down, 4 semis overturned in town, and farm equipment strown about! And to think I just thought it was just some weird @$$ wind outside. IT WAS WEIRD!!!!

I survived a night with Freddy Fender once. That's the only Tornado I've ever been through.

sorry ........ LOL... Some of the limbs that got taken out needed to be taken out!!! Although one lady wishes that that one big tree branch had not landed on her Suburban...

It is trying to start back up...this is some weird stuff out in the atmosphere tonight!

Isn't Kansas part of "tornado alley"? :thinking: I'm glad you made it though and hope you don't see another one soon.

Survived round 2...no tornado in this one...just massive wind and lightning.

Damage so far: 1 barn went AWOL (only the ladder to loft left); irrigation sprinklers doing the tango tangle dance, a couple of roofs gone, several houses missing siding, 1 power line pole snapped at the ground, a total of 4 trucks turned over (3 brand new Tyson trucks...Volvos) and 1 transport truck (the Tyson trucks were in round 1 with the tornado and the transport truck happened in round 2 with the high winds), a lot of very large limbs down, 1 tree limb down on 1 Suburban, that is all I saw before it got dark.

All we had were twigs about the size of my pinky blown out of the trees in our yard...funny, the trucks were overturned just 4 blocks down the road and big limbs across the street. :clap: :clap: :clap: yeah for us!

Things sound pretty exciting in Kansas right now. Glad to see you are still with us. Remember, if you get sucked in and wake up surrounded by a bunch of midgets, just click you heels three times and say, "There's no place like home."

Oh and watch out for flying monkeys. :thumbsup:
