T Boone Pickens, yeah, somewhere in there. He bought up all the water rights in the area. Hope he turned the sprinklers on

Tornado warnings in Chicago

Just saw that. I hope Dorothy (Fraz) doesn’t get carried off. Though, OZ might seem like a nice respite from the Chicago shithole.


Seriously though, tornado warnings in Chicago? In February? Go home Mother Nature, you’re drunk.

Tahoe/Donner Pass expecting up to 10' of snow between Thursday-Sunday this week.

Oh, that's T Boone country. Go figure.

Yeah, we went from 74 to "feels like" 8.

Mother Nature is a hell of a tease.

I have a trip to Tahoe scheduled for this weekend to chase the storm, but it's looking like it'll probably be too much, sadly. Probably going to have to cancel. :banghead:

Fire and ridiculous wind is a ****ing horror show.

In 2012 there was a big fire by Johnson, KS and that crazy bitch was moving 43 MPH. Obviously they had to put it out with tractors and disks and the fastest a tractor will go is 26.

**** that.

It was 72 earlier today, now it's 42. Supposed to be down around 20 by 8:00.

And then in a few days, back up in the 70s.

As far as I can remember, we've gone the entire month of February with almost no measurable snow fall; got a bit of rain here and there, but it really hasn't been cold enough for anything more than that, except some light flurries that barely stuck the grass and melted immediately. Strange, but I'll take it over a typical one.

Friends of ours traveling back from their trip to PHX stopped in shamrock TX for the night. Said they drove thru 60 mph winds all day. Never been thru anything like it. Smoke and dust, difficult driving conditions.

Went to a steakhouse for dinner and got kicked out as they were
evacuating the town. Ended up going to elk city Oklahoma for the night.

Wildfires in Texas, tornadoes in Chicago, blizzard in Iowa. Mother nature can be a crazy bitch, and it's not even March.

It stormed like hell in the Chicago area, and there were several reports of tornados in the suburbs and the rural area west of the city, but it looks like the damage was relatively minor. High winds and a little hail as well. It was pretty nasty when it went through by us around 7:00. Of course the weather shamans on WGN were trumpeting it like it was the apocalypse, and the wife was glued to that shit until I told her to turn it off. :shake:

Glad no damage Fraz

Thanks. It was no big deal where I was. Glad I wasn't out driving in it, though.

Who wants to start the Texas fire thread? It's massive.

Most of the people I know live in Gruver, Perryton, etc, just north of it.

Hog?
