TORNADO!! with PICS!!!!! 10 mi from my house!!

sorry about the crappy pics, all i had was my phone. it totally flattened my buddys trailer!! he wasnt there at the time luckaly! it messed up a LOT of houses and hundreds of trees are down. i did get to see a barn in the middle of the road but the pic didnt come out good.
 
so far i havent heard of any deaths. there were numerous wrecks on the interstate. the HUGE I40 sign blew down onto the road in 4 different pieces. there were about 5 highway signs bent down to the ground and a whole lot of billboards broken in two!! it was friggin crazy!!!! my buddy called me and said his house blew away and i was laughing at him (he is a really bad drunk) and he told me he was serious! i had to ride around and check everything out for myself!

Hope no one is hurt...

but imagine this scene from Beuamont, TX to Mobile, AL and you have what Katrina and Rita did to everything south of I-10.
 
Thats crazy man... hope everythings ok, thats about a 2 and a half hour drive for me.

We had one tear up the city a few years ago... it was pretty hellish for what it was (F1, and then F2)...
 
About 10 years ago my sister got some incredible pics of a tornado that was afew miles in front of her on the highway. I've always been fascinated with tornadoes. Anytime I see a tornado show on tv, I'm glued to the tv watching it.

Indeed it was. Shoulda been here last month, we had one hell of a crazy lightning storm... it was unreal, and constant 40-60mph winds the whole time...:jaw:
