Tornado's & Flipped Cars
#1
Wow..

The weather here is completely bright and sunny but, about an hour ago there were 2 tornados less than 10k from my house and pouring rain like I havent seen in a long time!!

I've been told that cars were flipped and lighting hit a building not far from here either!!

Since about 5:30am the weather has been absolutely dreadful but, now, as of 5pm, it is a completely clear, blue sky, and sunny. The humidity has returned and the birds and back outside my window!!

What a strange day!!

Anyone else experience crazy weather today??!? I'm in the far south end of the city of Guelph about 5km off the 401..

I'm in Belwood, 10 minutes east of Fergus. Lots of lightning and rain today. Maybe I can blame a tornado for ripping off my rear suspension!?

I'm at the airport. No planes crashed today, everyone is safe.

However it did get really really really dark, like night time dark. It was so awesome, I went and stood outside, it wasn't raining, just windy and warm. Walked inside and it started to pour and then there was so much water out there it just looked like a thick fog, didn't really look like it was raining... but if you walked out you were drenched like, instantly. It was awesome.
