I aint had a beer in a long time now ? LOL

Bet beer doesn't go too well with pain meds I bet.

Well you know.......I have always wanted to see one.......but in the daylight...can't imagine anything much scarier than having one coming down on you in the dark.....not able to tell where it's coming from or going to......

Your nuts ! LOL I don't even want to see another one on TV !

Sure it does ! LOL Ask Dan ! LOL

 

[jimdad07]

He did a lot of that ! Rob likes doing that too.

Good people who go and help others, better than touchholes who sell generators at premium prices out of their trucks every time a storm wreaks havoc. Seen a lot of that around here any time there's a storm.

Worst we had here so far was a hurricane called Wan, it just flattened all our big trees and did some damage to houses like rip shingles or roofs off, plenty of vinyl siding missing. That`s bad enough, power lines knocked down all over, people without heat, water and services for more than a month.

That would be pure hell !

I don`t even want to see one, been through a hurricane in the dark, been through a 100 mph gale at sea lasted 3 days beating our way back from the Flemish Cap. Too much damage for my liking.

Just my curious nature......have always wanted to see one since the first time I saw "The Wizard of Oz"....and that was in black and white.......

My saws and gas+oil came in handy. I cut with a crew for 5 days straight from sun up til way past sundown just to clear the roads and powerlines in our community right after the hurricane was over.I also cut out 7 + miles of pathway into the backwoods where we go fishing.

It was still dark and the wind raging 60 mph or better in gusts when the first bunch arrived pounding on my door wanting to borrow saws, gas and oil...LOL

I'm not interested in the damage.....I mean from a desire to witness one.....just the phenomenon it self is what interests me.....would much rather see one railing through the flatlands than getting involved with any settled areas.....

They are amazing things to see , if you can be safe doing it ! LOL Hard to really understand one unless you see it. How wind could even do that !

I witnessed little dirt devils twisting all around and beside us one day out in Alberta, it got worse as the day wore on but we finally drove out of it by the time we we were South of Calgary, by the time we got to Lethbridge we could see the green and black sky where we had been up North. The got pounded with huge ice balls the size of tennis balls and winds approaching 100 mph just ripped the town of Red Deer. We drove back up through there a week later and couldn`t believe the devastation.

Have any of you ever seen a water spout? Never seen one in person but they get a few of them out on Lake Ontario every year. Water tornadoes.

Yep and then the darn things peter out like someone flipped a switch and turned them off!!! Yes if I ever do see one I would want to be mobile...really, really mobile......like 175MPH Ducati kinda mobile.......

I have only seen them pick the water up 20' or so, just little water spouts.
