Last Resort Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hells Bells, Tornado Alley done moved to LA. That's about the only natural disaster yall DID NOT have. What's the world comin' to? ... it was in Orange County, a little south of LA, Huntington Beach if I heard correctly. But... it happens down here more than ya think. A couple years back I posted pics of a train that was knocked off its track near my house from a twisted. It also got some cars and outbuildings but the train was pretty impressive for a SoCal twister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasbin Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 No twisters here, A shittload of rain, A little bit of thunder, And a couple tons of mud so far, News out of SB county is the mountain behind La Conchita is getting pretty saturated & they were getting ready to evac. all the houses below (by force if needed) for those who do not know, Part of the hill came down in 2005 & killed a few people & jacked-up some houses. The worst part is I start on-call Tomm. :banghead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maldev Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The good news is that Lunchbox's bikes are the cleanest they've been in years. Lot's of rain and landslides up here near me but that the least of my worries at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travlur Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Pfffttt.. A wee bit 'o rain and an itty bitty tornado. Jes makes the ride more bracing! I did 'ave t' break out the chaps, but time t' git me moneys worth anyway! 'Course it slowed me down in the corners with the 4" of runnin' water sluicing across the street, but it's better than riding in the snow drifts like our brothers in the East! A wee bit noisy though wi' all the thunder and lightning crashin around me this marn though! All around... A GREAT day fer a ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Resort Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hells Bells, Tornado Alley done moved to LA. That's about the only natural disaster yall DID NOT have. What's the world comin' to? California Tornado Quiz Which of the following states has had more verified tornadoes in the period January through June 1998: Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas or California? ANSWER: California. Which U.S. county had the most verified tornadoes in 1996? ANSWER: Fresno County, California. ___ T ___ F No region in California experiences tornado frequencies that rival those observed in the Great Plains. ANSWER: False. Portions of the southern Los Angeles Basin and portions of the Central Valley (central San Joaquin and "tornado alley" in the Sacramento Valley--corridor between Chico and Oroville) have tornado frequencies that equal or rival those in the Great Plains. ___ T ___ F Tornadoes are rare in California. ANSWER: False. One of the most erroneous preconceived notions about California weather and climate that refuses to die, despite overwhelming contradictory evidence. ___ T ___ F Tornadoes in California, unlike their Great Plains' cousins, are always weak and short-lived. ANSWER: False. In California, as in the Great Plains, the most frequent tornado to occur is the F0 (weak) . However, F1 (moderate) tornadoes are almost as frequent. Some California tonadoes have path lengths as long as three miles or more. It is true that F2 (strong) tornadoes are much rarer in California than in the Great Plains. F4 and F5 damage producing tornadoes have never been observed in California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage229 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 That storm front has finally made it to the East Coast but it's nowhere as intense. It's just down to a sprinkle now. (At least in my area.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
