mrflynn03 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 All I want for Christmas is....near record high temperatures and possible tornados? Fridays forecast feels like a day in April. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Powerful storm systems in winter often have three sections: heavy snow, rain, and severe weather. This time of year, northern Indiana is almost always in what I like to call "the screw zone." Too far north for severe weather, too far south for snow. Just boring old rain. Oh, and maybe some wind. Hope all the leaves my neighbors didn't bother to rake don't end up in my yard again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 So here we have a tornado watch until 3 am and the possibility of nocturnal tornadoes and guess what just happened? The police dispatcher accidentally set off the tornado siren at 10pm. Way to go dude. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWatShot Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 OK, I was wrong. Northern Indiana is actually getting in on this unusual weather event. Unreal what's happening in Kentucky, southern Illinois and Arkansas. Not sure I've ever seen a tornado outbreak like this in December. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A candle factory collapses on employees. Also saw a nursing home in Arkansas was leveled. Amazon building in Illinois collapses? Prayers for all It was a wild night down here in E'ville last night. Did not get to bed until after 1:00 a.m. While we were pretty much spared, other than some downed power lines, our neighbors to the south across the river, really got socked with devastation. That candle factory may have anywhere between 50-100 casualties, plus the nursing home has 2 fatalities as of now. Weather people are now saying there may have been as many as 4 tornadoes on the ground in West. Kentucky. I work in those areas and I am scheduled to be there next week. I don't know what I will see when I go down there. My prayers to all of those families who are struck with loss of life and property. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 I had to look for answer. 219 miles is the longest ever on the ground tornado that occurred in 1925 from Missouri to Indiana. At least that's what I found. So for context last night basically has never happened before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 One of our mature red buds is sitting about 20 degrees off center after last night's craziness. We had two tornado warnings. I was pretty foggy the second time as my wife woke me up and made me go to the basement again. Knew the forecast was bad but man...that's as much wind as I've experienced in a long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 100 ft pole sign came crashing down. Did not hear of anyone was injured. Our crews are out all over central indiana doing emergency sign work today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 I remember looking out my kitchen window, my friend and neighbor was coming up the hill with his flashlight. We went to our neighbors at the end of the road. They were okay, the three of us then went to to check on the other end of the T in the road! Climbing over and under hundreds of fallen hardwoods while avoiding downed power lines we reached our neighbors! The knock on the door was greeted with “who are you?” My friend responded “Warm Springs Fire Department “ The reply still resonates “Oh thank God” That was ONLY an F2! Praying for all affected! and now the same front is upon me! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostin76 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 Man, the news just gets worse with that tornado. What a monster storm.

mrflynn03 Posted December 12, 2021 Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 I know we like to give Kentucky alot of shit, deservedly. But saw somewhere where the Eville, Henderson Ohio River Bridge had alot of Hoosiers, linemen, first responders crossing the river to help. I'd volunteer if I had any PTO days left. America first. We take care of our neighbors, even if we don't like them sometimes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted December 12, 2021 Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) I'm going to post one more video because I find it interesting. Mayfield, KY seems to be similar to the town I grew up in. About 10,000 people with an immigrant population. Have seen multiple videos from the Mayfield factory where people say we just had a hurricane. I wonder if any of these people ever experienced a tornado. In the following video the kid says hurricane and corrects himself and says tornado. Can you imagine how terrifying it would be to not know what a tornado is? @3:03 Edited December 12, 2021 by mrflynn03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in times like these, I consider them family and hope the best for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really related to this thread but when I see your posts, knowing you are in New York City, I always think of Simon and Garfunkel's, "Only Living Boy in New York". I guess that reveals how old I am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
