Default tornado pics

Everybody from the company I work for volunteered today to help with the tornado cleanup. Here are a few pictures from the house I worked one. These houses are all on five acre lots so there were only about a dozen right here destroyed. Very strange stuff to see. Huge sections of roofs blown 500 yards from the house they came off of. A large shop totally gone but two boats that were in it sitting undamaged. Shingles, insulation and broken glass. Trees and lumber scattered as far as you could see. I'll probably take the tornado warnings a bit more seriously now.

I hate storms, Isabel messed up my Harley and I lost a bunch of vette parts to the flood...including my gas tank sticker.

This was a bad storm... Had the family in Bentonville, AR last Sunday night when it hit. Here are a few pictures of the airport 1.5 miles away from where we were and the golfball & baseball hail damage on my wifes car.

Yikes. I was just about to take the 77 out for a run when the sirens went off. After I ran upstairs to see what the weather channel was saying, I then went on a mad dash to clear enough space in the other garage bay for the Cherokee. Luckily, the storm took a breather as it was passing over me.

Shoooot. Here I thought I'd get to look at some pics of an air intake that would make my '81 get an additional 100 HP and 30 MPG.
