If you're in that driveway in the first scene, you're now in 8,437 little pieces.

I was driving down a rural highway friday.  Wooded area on both sides...all of a sudden, there's a path about 100 yards wide where all the trees are snapped off and twisted, then on either side of the path, it looks normal.  The concentration of power is amazing.

Watched one roll through Oneonta when I lived there. Did minimal damage really but the way it attacked things sporadically amazes me. For instance, the line of flag poles centered in the highway when entering town were flattened and twisted in all different directions while a few were left standing upright.

Also, and I think I've mentioned this before, you really don't see many folks building the in ground tornado shelters anymore.

There's been quite a few in ground storm pits springing up around these parts since last April. An old high school buddy of mine installs these things and he said he's still back logged on orders.

They should. Hell, every since I moved down here, the tornado seasons have been rough and thats saying a lot considering I use to try an out run those bad ass storms to the house about once a week.

Nearly every old farm house out in the country has/had one somewhere on the property.

That's one hell of a surveillance system.

For realz. The owner of this house could make his money through the surveillance company and marketing on something like this.

The manufacturer of that pool cover should use the video as their testimonial.
