Oh man..
Do you have tornado insurance? What are you going to do about repairing/new house?
insurance will cover 100%, no worries there but we're under a state of emergency and we can't go back until they get the down power lines/gas leaks fixed.
damn man thats shitty... never been around or seen a tornado that looks like some pics straight out of a movie.. good luck with rebuidlin the palace back up
Damn, man! That pictures are terrifying! :eek: Im very glad that everybody is ok... and im very sorry for you, man... i hope everything be ok very soon... my best wishes! :thumbsup:
holy shit hard core:eek::S5:
Wow! Jaw dropping pics.
:jawdropper:Glad everyones ok, and thank goodness for insurance, eh?! Damn... puts my measly problems in perspective!
damn i was expecting it to be a joke or something when i read the title...im sorry for you but atleast your ok and u have insurance...
The tornado turned your neighborhood into a junkyard. It helped to know that everyone was alright, before I looked at the pictures.
Heard about the tornados on the news, that's scary man. Glad everyone's ok tornados are not to be fucked with.. However that doesnt stop me from going storm chasing the last few summers :thumbsup:, you gotta know what you're doing though otherwise it's extremely stupid to go driving towards a storm... actually it probably is stupid even though we do know what we're doing lol
Holy crap! Were you inside the house when it started to blow apart? I'm glad no one was hurt, but looking at the pictures, it's amazing no one was.
:eek:Fucken Hell man, Your neighbour hood is distroyd dude, thankfully you's are all ok.. Thats gonna take years to re-build everthing man..
Hope yous kan get it sorted soon as poss and back living in your homes..
we were all inside when it hit
damn. i dont even know what to say, thats some horrible shit. Its good that you and your familys allright though. I guess you just have to be strong and pull through this difficult time. Good Luck in your future man.
Are you going to stay living where things like tornadoes happen?
Pull up stakes and move away from there to a place that does not have catastrophic natural disasters every year because of location on the globe.
It must have been terrifying. Sorry you went through that. How long did it last?Quote:

Jesus...that's fucking crazy.... I'm sorry to hear about that dude, I hope the clearing out goes fast so you can start getting your house rebuilt ASAP.
thanks everybody everything is starting to get straightened out, contractors sealed the house up with tarps and all the adjuster came today but an engineer will have to make the desicion whether or not we'll be repairing or tearing it down. he's suppost to come tomrrow so hopefully by monday i'll know whats up. Shit went down, 3 people died in a trailer park up the road from me, luckily all our good stuff, computers, phones, xbox, tools are all ok, i'm living with my grandfather right now we might be renting a house soon.
WOW that fuckin sucks man.
Good luck with all of that, hope you got that tornado insurance haha.
when i was like 8 years old a real weak treetop tornado went through my backyard in cleveland, and pinned a tree through our garage haha. Not as bad as yours but thats still a wrecked ass car either way.
You were inside?? damn did you hold on to the walls ?? what did you guys do? were you in a basement? Im glad you guys are ok I heard alot of people arnt as lucky. If I could help I would like too, but im stuck like chuck right now.
Holy shit dude. Can you just describe the experience starting from when it happened? Were you prepared (like did the TV warn you)?
Well there was a tornado watch out for my area, and i was watching the weather on the tv and on the internet.
i was standing on my back porch seconds before it hit, i was watching the sky, then the wind started picking up so i stepped inside thinking it might be bad news and then the power flipped off and me and my family jetted for the bedroom closet, it is an interior closet with no windows and we barley made it in before the class started breaking out of the windows and shit was flying everywhere
it was a really intense feeling, it was sucking everything out of the house, felt like we were in a vacuum, just a few more seconds and it would have took my room off and my house apart, but it only lasted a few seconds and it was over, we walked outside and everything was destroyed, including our garage and my car :(
were you stoned at the time
i woulda fired up fat bowls during all that madness
put my windproof lighter to the test
im glad you and your people are ok
when i heard aboiut it i was hoping
to hear from someone who was there
what it was like....now i got a good idea..
