Popular Post HeavyGunner Posted July 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 5, 2015 Right about dusk (10:15) last night we had a horrible storm roll in. About that time my mother in law with severe copd panics because there is wind and starts having breathing trouble. After 10 minutes of trying to reason with her that every thing is alright and to calm down and take the final 3 steps to my truck so we could get her home rather than call an ambulance we ended up calling an ambulance. It took them 10 min or so to get to us. While we were waiting on the porch with her my phone made a noise I never heard before. I pulled it out and I was getting an EAS alert telling me there is a tornado alert. Shortly after that the ambulance showed up and the storm did too. Massive hail started hitting us, I won't say it was falling since it was flying sideways. I've never had hail that literally hurt so bad I that I wanted to quit helping load up my mother in law in e ambulance. But being the great son in law that I am i helped cover her head with a coat and load her up in the ambulance. She's as fine as she can be with her condition now. Rained all night and still raining here. No power since 5 am or so. Got my generator running the house now. Life is good hope everyone had a safe holiday. http://www.krtv.com/story/29476330/tornado-warning-for-chouteau-hill-and-liberty-county 5 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

HeavyGunner Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 Couldn't hardly imagine softball size hail. We would have lots of dead cows if we got softball sized hail. 2 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.
