F5 wipes Kansas town off the map.

I actually drove thru this town about 12 years ago returning from a vacation at the Grand Canyon. Can't say I remember a damn thing about it. They're already talking about trying to rebuild this shithole that had like 95% of it's homes and buildings scattered about like so many toothpicks. What's left to rebuild? From the pictures I've seen it looks like the only structure left standing was a grain elevator.

Got another round of these bitches rolling thru here right now and forecast for the next 2 days. By the weather maps it looks like severe storms are stretching from Texas all the way up thru Wisconsin. But as always, the brunt of the worst weather is hitting in tornado alley, aka Kansas and Oklahoma. Gots some serious flooding occuring all over, though. I don't want to hear one more word from the jackasses who say we're in a drought, hmmkay?

War storm cellars!

Colorado and Utah are being hounded by Tornadoes

Fatso needs to shave his beard and shed a few dozen lbs.

If it took an F-5 to get his lazy ass off the couch, so be it.

Being as how this EF-5 (Enhanced Fujita scale, the 1st one recorded under the new measurement system) was 1.7 miles wide and stayed on the ground for 22 miles and 30 minutes, it took a whole buncha' folks lazy asses off the couch.

Word is that it may have been one of the most powerful tornados ever. Rack that guy for being able to walk pushing all that's left of his belongings on a cart. Some weren't as fortunate.

Common Misconceptions about tornados and the midwest:

There's a lot of them
We've all seen them
They are all F5

Newsflash coastal dwellers: Unlike Hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires and tsunami's they typically only tear up a few blocks and shit 500 yards away is usually A-OK.

The freaky ones that do rip through like this recent one get all the Pub, but we like to think of them more as natural selection as they usually take out trailer parks or dirtwater towns.

That said - someone turn off the fucking faucet or build an ark up in this bitch.

Fuck off, page stretching gimp.

Some mod axe that lame ass pic, and take Toejam posts with it.

No shit. They're now saying to expect heavy rain for the next 5 days. This could make the flood of '93 look like an outing at Oceans of Fun.

Tornados suck and are certainly devastating, but they're gone in a few minutes. Flooding affects a much larger area and doesn't go away for days and weeks.

Yea - They just built a shitlaod of new developments out here by little Blue - back in '93 that whole area was underwater.
We'll see if the Corps of Injun beers got it right this time.

Glad I'm on the hill, but I may go get my Waverunner out of strorage just in case.

But Hell almighty, Pop. For KC that's a nice sled. Lookit all the features:

Believe it or not, that's the top of the line model.

Dear Darwin, Thanks a lot!

Nah, Twisler.

High and dry at Casa de Wagon's doublewide and still firmly anchored to the cinder blocks.

Work's another story, though. We're located in the Missouri river bottoms area and whenever the water get's too high like now, the sewers back-up. So they've got the water shut off and hauled in some Porta' Potty's. That kinda' stinks, but oh well. Beats living in Greensburg.

Just don't know any better, I guess.

I never had my house pushed over before. Never had my family stuck out on the road. Never had to lose everything I had in life.
