CRAZY F-ing Weather!

[Buffalo Budd]

this tornado was about 5-10 mile from my house last week.

That is nuts!!!

[rowjimmy]

Is that this one?

[VA $l!m]

think so.
there were a bunch running around the outskirts that day thou
scary shit.

[VA $l!m]

ok so, that was the one 5 miles from my house.
mom has a friend that worked in that building

another crazy storm last night.
80 mph winds here, 110 up in omaha.
pretty much every tree in lincoln lost limbs.
looks like a hurricane went through.
we got pretty lucky, no major damage.

definitely craziest storm season since i moved here.

The pics and reports of western NC are devastating. Asheville and Boone are pretty destroyed. Towns inbetween completely wiped out. A friend that lived on their farm outside Boone passed away from their house collapsing cuz of a landslide. 
That area hasn't seen this type of natural disaster destruction in probably 100 years or more.

Absolutely gutting to see what has hit that region and the shit they're continuing to deal with as the waters slowly recede. SW VA and East Tennessee are also similarly hit (though Asheville obviously has the highest concentration of people). The small valley towns that are gone... It's crazy.

The challenges are far from over. For many, the impacts may be felt for a generation.


I'm really sorry to hear about your friend EMay.

I fear we're going to be hearing many more stories like that in the coming week or two.

Fawk! That sucks, Erik. Sorry to hear about your friend.

yeah was worried about all the fam up in Boone ASheville area for sure.
dont look good.

This hurricane season has been totally insane so far. We got really lucky with Milton last night where we are in central FL. The panhandle and west coast of FL have been devastated. I can't even speak of what happened to E TN and WNC due to Helene. I still can't quite comprehend the level of destruction caused.

Glad to see you're okay down there 'Lope.

not in the category of disasters, and I don't mean to make light of them.

It's mid November in New England and I still have living tomato plants with fruit in my backyard. I'm grateful for them, but this is just wrong. One of these days the other side of this will come back to bite us.

I just chopped my raspberry bush 3 days ago and was still getting berries last week.
Heading to Sunday River in 3 weeks for my dtr's training camp but can't see myself getting too many runs in.

Sunday River is where I cut my teeth on skis.  Love that hill!!
