Shaun_300 Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Re: A ND Funnel Cloud in May cool! we don't get many twisters here, there was one last summer... it ripped from one end of the lake to the other, through the lumber yard, threw some lumber into the lake in the process, and knocked a big poplar tree down across the highway. it was pretty neat! it sure made a mess though!

billkay Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 Re: A ND Funnel Cloud in May I was driving Tim, teamrltreehntr, to the airport in Iowa last month and we watched a funnel cloud develop a few miles ahead of us, hit the ground and then disappear back into the clouds. Glad it wasn't me flying that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night was another bad night.......one touched down about 5 miles west of us, and numerous others statewide.........tis the season, I guess..
