In April 2000 a T3 went through the center of my town, doing some major damage, but amazingly not killing anyone and only a couple of dozen with minor injuries. It completely took out a building back of my house, dumping a lot of it on my roof. It tipped a big tree onto the front of the house too, but I got away lightly compared to many.

The noise of a 160+ mph wind going by is like an express train. That one tornado did about $35 million worth of damage, even in a largely rural area.

A short but impressive video-clip here:

Impressive indeed !!
