Gotta trust our official authorities.

Never trust your own eyes and brains.

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...

Yeah, we had a couple touch down here last week, one Northeast of us and another just South. Weird...we NEVER used to get tornadoes in California that I recall. Didn't do much harm like what you pictured (yikes!), but still weird. Glad it missed you!

You Tornado Alley guys better stop sending 'em to us, or we'll send you a few real good shakers!

Sorry, Niki - 't'weren't me. They're actually fairly rare here in Austin, but we're right on the cusp of tornado country. The hill country seems to bust them up a bit, but we get 'em north of town and some to the east. Closest I've been was a funnel about a half-mile from my old house, but it didn't touch down.

Nice. You should post it as a parking fail.

That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.

I'm glad you're okay PN. Yeah, tornadoes are pretty scary.

We rarely get ratable tornadoes in Oregon but every several years we get a little one, there have only been three above an F 1 in the last 50 years or so. A few months back we had an F2 in a town about an hour and a half south of me. We do get a few funnel cloud sightings in OR every year though. I'm so thankful I don't live in an area with lots of tornadoes.

Good God, Pengs! I hope you have a cellar full of nice, fresh fish and a warm spot for Morena in hopes she is trapped with you.

The tornado rule is that it isn't one unless it's observed on the ground, so when I lived in SLO County CA we had a lot of them which would whip through at night and pull up a lot of trees. Made the natives MOST restless when our tornadoes weren't acknowledged, or downplayed as "possible microbursts."
Here near Redding, Shasta County CA there was a fer-sure tornado that was given a cute little non-tornado rating ("O") because so many people saw it, but just not the proper official people, and none of the photos was really clear at the base - - because of the small diameter and dirt - - we all thought that was fair.
Now when the insurance companies raise our rates because of the tornado danger we can all yell some more.
Heh.
