check out this storm that ripped through my neighborhood.
« on: May 29, 2008, 03:55:11 PM »
this storm happened a while ago but i dug out some pics and wanted to see what people might say/think.  this storm left me with out power till about 1 o'clock in the morning and stated at about 11 oclock in the morning.  it lasted for about 3 or 4 hours.  the actual storm consisted of STRONG winds, hail, HEAVY rain, and LOTS of violent lightning and thunder.  the storm later was declared a micro-burst.  a micro-burst is like a tornado but not as large.  here are some pictures of the devastation.  the pictures were my taken looking down and up my street by the way. 


^ notice the down power lines? thoes were live thankfully they didnt start a fire or something. 

^once again trees and down power lines scattered my road.

Give a man a match and he will be warm for a few seconds, set him on FIRE and he will be warm for the rest of his life.

A GREAT leader has the ability to combine knowledge, passion, caring, and wisdom into a focused energy that perpetuates the desire to do GREAT in those who are following.

Yeah, that's when someone needs to get on the city about not trimming the trees around the power lines. :arghfist:
