Just heard on the news that at least 1 twister supposedly touched down in or near Virden, MB. Hope everyone over there is ok.
You guys ok?

Thanks for the concern, Wolverine is OK but the area has suffered, Pat and I sat on the deck and watched the storm for well over two hours last night. We will have to see what our staff report in the next couple of hours.

Pretty sure there was a tornado ran through within a hundred yards of my house. Trees 18"-24" thick snapped off 12' high off the ground about 30' swath through the bush.
Fun times.
Thanks for the concern.

Actually I was outside at one point in my rain poncho, just to see how the neighbours were doing...I had lawn chairs strategically placed around my yard as wind speed and direction sensors LOL

Glad to hear you all fared well! Footage looks like that was no joke! I hear the tornado touched down for two to three hours.

We don't mess around here on the prairies....we live by the "if a little is good, a bunch is better and a whole lot is just about right"...it applies to everything including weather.

Glad to hear you guys are okay. News is reporting that the massive twister actually lasted for three hours. An experienced stormchaser said it was in the top 3-4 twisters he'd ever seen in terms of size and ferocity. Ever. I suddenly don't have a problem with our crappy North Atlantic climate.

Yuri actually doesn't drink...we think he is the way he is because his parents gave him plastic bags to play with when he was little.....
He's still around just working hard at getting out the STG44 backorders

Yeah it was over a mile wide and what they call a multiple-vortex tornado....I'm just hoping it sucked all the frickin mosquitoes away
Come on John, do folks think you are about to let a little wind bother you ??
Of course being closer to Ottawa, we are quite use to a lot of wind.
Glad all are well
