docwarren Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Had several around DFW, but seems mostly hail damage widespread. Our hospital had moved the patients & families into the hallways for about 2 hours and it was like a madhouse trying to work around the crowd. Quote
JohnWayne Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) yesterday I spent part of the afternoon in a shelter, things got crazy here. I live between OKC and El Reno - near miss for us. Nothing like being in the middle of several super cell tornados to remind you how great life is without them. Edited May 25, 2011 by JohnWayne Quote

It must be very intimidating. Quote
abnerdog Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 I have been through a couple F1 hurricanes but tornadoes are rare in Maryland. They just updated Jopin figures 117 dead 1500 missing. Missing mostly means dissplaced and no way of getting in touch with a relative. 6th deadliest tornado in US history. Glad to hear your OK, I have never personally experienced anything like that. It must be very intimidating. Hey Farge you get any kind of wheather like this up in Canada or is it just heavy snow at times? Quote

Hey Farge you get any kind of wheather like this up in Canada or is it just heavy snow at times? I wouldn't say they are rare in MD just most time not as strong and more spread out. However you are right nothing like the mid west gets. and hurricanes isabel was a wild time and I was in central MD. Edited May 25, 2011 by kingcamper Quote

We do just not around here too often, Ive seen twisters in the sky but nothing has ever touched down where I am, they are usually a little west of me. Quote
Administrators JoeDirt Posted May 25, 2011 Administrators Posted May 25, 2011 There was a tornado up here in Toronto last year, blew some roofs off, the closest I ever got to was while driving about 10 years ago it blew a roof of a strip mall and part of it landed around my car. I have some co-workers down there that were affected with the recent weather/tornadoes and thank god they are all alive and well. Quote
Livyatan Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Not that many tornadoes out here in Arizona, but we did have a F1 last year. It formed far away from town, providing curious onlookers with a great view. Quote
