YES! I live in florida...:Holy Crap

It's cool at first, but later it's hard to sleep because trees are falling and power goes out. All the roads flood and for some people houses just float away.:Roll Eyes

[JCYC5]

People's houses float away? Whoa...

[egarrard]

I've been through a couple of Cat 5 tornados. Does that count?

[imtim83]

egarrad yes it does count! How wide were those F5 tornados please?

I wish i could see a F5 tornado in person. I know they are extremely bad.

Ok. City had a really bad F5 tornado a few years back that was huge. It destoryed so much and killed pretty many :( Not as many as it could of but still even one person being killed or hurt is a lot.

I think Tornados are worse because they focus the power in
one tight spot. If they move over a house it's gone! And those pictures of cars flying miles into the sky are for real. Just think what it would do to a person!

The last time it was that bad a pine cone hit me in the face and it hurt for a good long time. Almost like getting hit in the ear with a baseball only with spikes!:Holy Crap

The Hurrican its self is not really all that bad if your in the right place. Here at work with these 1Million dollar back up power systems you just fill up the tanks and run another 24hours easy.

The worst of it is just old trees falling because of the winds and the rain. If your unlucky a tree might poke a hole in your house or the power might be out for a week.

And yes, in a flood zone your house my float away because it does happen.:shocking

[imtim83]

Tivon yep Tornados are nothing to play with. You never play with mothe nature really. Though do you remember how some people lived after being lifted by a tornado? Like a baby, etc ? Thats very amazing and not sure how that would happen. Guess they are very lucky.

[imtim83]

Huh?

[Killroy71]

Nope but I've seen the effects of an F-5 tornado! The storm that spawned it developed over the town I was stationed in in Oklahoma! THAT was a storm to remember! The houses looked like someone had used a gian cheese gratter to destroy them! The only people that survived from the direct impact of the funnel cloud were the ones in custom made storm shelters (the kind with rienforced concrete and a door that could be secured against the winds). It was pretty humbling to see how small man is compared to nature's power. It makes CFCs look unimportant by comparison. The Earth would recover even if we managed to kill ourselves off.

Combat Comm!

[imtim83]

CFCs?
