    Well, thats my home town right there. Places that were directly hit were less then 200yds from the back of the garage i was standing in.
    I had no idea an EF3 tornado was behind me at the time.
    No sirens, no forecast for severe weather and not a single fatality.
    Someone lost an arm at a property just east of town.

    I went from the garage to the house and got hit by a 2x4 and a tree limb, also watched the neighbors
    trampoline land on my car and then pretty much levitate down my driveway and land on main street.


    I have a whole bunch of video and pictures from the aftermath.
    I quit my day time job to volunteer in town and worked at one of the food pantrys.
    I ran a skidsteer for a solid 5 weeks, 7 days a week, 15+ hours a day.

    Weird as I couldn't get the first one to work. That is really nasty.
