Awesome pics.

When can we see Tuesday's tornado? You are falling behind, and management expects all your tornado pics to be submitted by the end of this week's business cycle.

Count yourself lucky my friend. I lived through a bad tornado and it is as frightening an experience as you can ever have.

My mother used to always live in trailer courts in Minnesota's tornado alley (southern part of the state)...I don't know why, but she ALWAYS did! I'd dread going to visit her because I knew at least once each visit, there'd be a sleepless night spent in the storm shelters waiting for either a tornado, high winds, or something similar to pass. As you probably already know, trailer houses are not meant to stand up to high winds...ugh.

Q) How is a tornado like a Kentucky divorce?
A) Sooner or later, both will involve a trailer home.

those are amazing pics. Did it touch down in the water? Were there fish on your house afterward?

The damage from this tornado was almost unbelievable. There were whole neighborhoods of houses that were just completely destroyed as it stayed on the ground for 22 miles right through the city.

Those are great pics. As a lifelong Kansas resident we sure seem to get our share of tornadoes around here.
