PS- Maybe the the creature was pumping its wings to generate gas which it expels from the back in order to propel it forward.

It’s Doctor Who, so that’s entirely plausible, LOL

Years ago Gary had an operation. The surgeon’s last name was Hu. When Gary first met her he said “So you’re Dr. Hu ...”. She just smiled.

So did she play first base on the weekends??

Sloppy Joes on toast.
I've had better dinners but have also had worse. With a nice Coolaid to accompany it.

They're whispering about more snow later in the week. That stupid rodent in Pennsylvania has had his six weeks. It's time to make groundhog burritos if this continues.

I'll bring the meat grinder.

The north has their spring snow, and we have our spring winds. 3 tornadoes have touched down already this evening, to the north and west of us. So far they haven't done any serious damage (roofs, signs, etc.) but the evening is young, and we're entering the prime time of the day. Lots of hail, some up to baseball size. And now another one about 50 miles west of us has spun up, which hopefully will skirt off to the north of us. Only good thing is the front is moving fast upwards of 50 mph so hopefully by 9 pm it will have blown through.

Stay safe, my friend. I figured you were going to be in the crosshairs tonight.

Did you guys build a shelter as part of your house? It was so strange to walk into Home Depot where my in-laws live and to be able to buy tornado shelters off the floor.

I remember delivering a truck load of them to a residential development years ago.

After a terrible thunder boomer last night today was another nice one in East Texas.
I wish you all a good night and a pleasant tomorrow. I shall awaken at 4am tomorrow. And Wednesday and Thursday and so on.

We have a safe room in the basement, but that's not necessarily safe. Couple years ago, people were trapped in their shelters when houses collapsed on them. If the storms track as the radar shows, it will skirt just to the north.

I get cranky about snow, but at last I have general expectation of what is coming on Wednesday today. With tornadoes, there still isn't much notice.

I've only ever seen one in the flesh once. I visiting my grandparents in Minnesota, and we were able to watch it across about a mile of cornfield. Seeing the aftermath the next day made me happy to live in New England.

Seen so many, I've lost count. Interesting that you mention MN, because I actually saw one coming down the Mississippi at Minneapolis one time. I was in the middle of the old bridge, and the idiots in front and behind me were stopping to watch it. Biggest one I've seen was the one a few years ago that hit Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, and South Gadsden. Lots of damage, first responders ran out of ambulances and were hauling the injured to ER in the backs of Pickups. From our deck we watched it track about 5 miles south of us. We had all kinds of debris falling in the yard. Found picture, bills, checks, money from people 100 miles away that finally floated down.

Dang just showed the Nissan Dealer lot in Cullman, AL. Looks like someone took a baseball bat to all those new cars. They were reporting hail up to 4" diameter. We had a little hail here a few minutes ago but fortunately just small

Cullman County under flash flood warning until 1:30 a.m.

The hail reports are unreal Alabama storms latest updates: Damage reported, baseball-sized hail; Are the storms done?

And it appears that the worst of it, went south and north of us.

 

[davidharmier60]

Morning peeps.
No hail around here.
Not much humidity even.
But if you don't like the weather in Texas
Wait a minute and it'll change
