    Yep, a real Tornado hit Longview today just across the river from Oregon. Several buildings damaged and some people hurt. We had some wild weather today. Lighting and thunder storms with heavy hail at my place today. They say winds were well over hundred.

    When I lived in Oklahoma we called F-1's a light breeze...

    Hope folks are fine, looks like a little damage that can be fixed...

    They showed on the news this morning of one larger commercial building minus it's entire roof. Big enough wind here especially when this kind of stuff is very rare.

    Must be that darn global warming. :rolleyes:

    We got hit with a Nor'Easter yesterday. Winds of 60 mph and a few inches of rain. Lots of trees down . My yard looks like doo doo and I'm not able to clean it yet.
