Tornado pics.. before and after

[LDS Jock]

for the 1999 Oklahoma City tornado. The destruction is incredible. This tornado was F5 at times, but not sure what at this part of its path.





That is the same house! More pics here. http://www.cimms.ou.edu/~cimms/damage.htm

Anyone been through a tornado?

1. I've been close enough to see two of them...

...one in 1978 and another nearly twenty years later in 1997. Both times I was less five blocks away, but it was obvious they were moving away from my location so I just stood and watched them. There's something eerily mesmerizing about them--kinda like the Siren Sisters. But considering the ugly outcome of so many of them in terms of lives and destruction, I hope I never see another one again.
