Scary storm

[Highway Star]

When I used to live in Ohio, the worst microburst I've ever experienced passed through my neck of the woods. It was a violent wicked thunderstorm, with high winds 70+ and sideways driving rain. Before it really started up, you could feel it, I guess kind of like animals can feel a storm. Knocked down trees, blew down sheds and roofs, and powerlines, etc. That was nuts. The brids were chirping 15 minutes later. Think you guys had a microburst up there?

I have to say though, nothing compares to the hurricanes around here...for me personally. I like the study and observation of weather. Wow. Sustained 80 mph winds for 6 or 7 hours from the east, then the eye of the storm, then 80 mph sustained winds from the west for 6-7 hours as the other side of the storm passed over. Right at my house. Holy crap.
