I was at my great aunts house back in Marceline Missouri back in the early 90’s for a family reunion. Well the day before, a tornado hit the ground and ran right through the path of the house. Surprisingly, the only thing that happened was a few shutters being ripped off and a rain barrel was set on the other side of the fence not spilling much. The house 50 feet down the road became toothpicks. To this day that’s the loudest noise I’ve ever heard.

Ive seen a couple of the little rope ones back in KC and kansas. never been hit by one. Good news tho is most are little ones like that

in this particular instance the only thing that makes this kind of velocity product and debris signature, is the big baddie monster wedge kind of tornado. And went right through the center of somerset and london kentucky both, and theres a second one going through Somerset right now with a radar signature damn near as evil lookin as the first one. Cyclonic wind speeds near ground level close to 250 mph


im talkin the ef4/ef5 kinda thing. Most towns in east tn and Ky dont even have tornado sirens either.

I was about to say. That’s at least F4 material and nobody wins in those. Intense violence everywhere once those hit.

Most are really small and fairly brief but the big ones are a flaming pile of s*** when they hit populated areas.

first one, the super nasty one with the debris radar signature as high as 4000ft, went right through the center of somerset, when switched over to google maps to see what was directly under the debris signature.. and it was a retirement RV community... So i stopped looking ahead of it ☹️ i dont think i wanna know.

You'll might know this trick already, maybe not. I thought of it, but no way I came up with it I'm sure!

i kept seeing box turtles in the yard mowing today too. Isnt there a thing about seeing tarrapins before storms?
I think that’s more Cousin Earl’s Midwest Myth than anything. I’ve heard that many times but I don’t think there’s much correlation. Terrapins are usually more active after it rains and the ground is cooler.

It’s spring, probably laying eggs. . I hate seeing them dead on the road, I always pull over and relocate them. My turtle Bobby was a hatchling crawling across a parking lot.
