kapkomet Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Now this is about only the 2nd time I've seen this since I lived here... all the weather people are all freaking out, saying that this is the "perfect storm" scenario... WHOOPIE! Of course, I live about right in the middle of that bullseye. If the server dies, it got blown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Yikes, that sounds like the storm we got in August that about destroyed half of the town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 And at the nicer end of Texas, it will be sunny and in the eighties on South Padre Island, where I am heading. Adios Frio. Sipping beers at my favorite ocean side bar, eating fish tacos, watching the sea gulls and dolphins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Kickass Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 We're getting 3 or 4 inches of rain in NJ today. That's what three feet of snow if it was cold enough? Basically, the Nor'easter hitting the Jersey shore will be at its peak, comparable to a Tropical Storm. Just colder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Well, here we go again. This time it's not a warmfront right over top of us, but a dryline - that usually means big hail. The last time we had a tornado watch, we had a tornado 5 miles from my house, and even last week we had one (when there were no watches or warnings) a mile from my house. These tornado watches (wheeeeeeeeere is it???? ) are getting old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I hear you about this crazy weather. I almost had to think about putting my kids in long pants to go to school today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapkomet Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 The elementary school that's two blocks from my house recorded 8.45 inches of rain since 2 this afternoon (it's 10:40 now). Earler, the tornado sirens went off (again) - and I have not seen anything like it since I've been down here. The rain was so hard you couldn't see across the street, and then the wind would shift right away to another direction and blow the rain back the direction it had just blown from. Really weird stuff. It's quiet now, but man there's a lot of water around. Our back yard has 6 inches of standing water and between our houses is like a river of water as everyone's yard drains out.

southsider2k5 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 This picture was taken about 5 miles from my house, on the other side of Michigan City The worst of things was a cop car got picked up and taken about a quarter mile and dumped on its roof. The officer sustained some injuries, but they weren't life threatening. the other stuff was property damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
