TORNADOS!?


Fish Posted: Jun 10th 2008

Hey Sharkie! I missed your response a few posts back. So you and your brother will explore your sister's room while she is gone? I am so SHOCKED!!!:D OK, not really.

Yes, tornados....many, many, MANY of them. Just one is too many if you ask me!:-(


curt t1 Posted: Jun 10th 2008

wow i would be scared if i lived were you do fish!


Fish Posted: Jun 10th 2008

I'd much rather live in Ireland I think, curtt1! Is it nice nice weather there?


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 11th 2008

It's very good weather here. I cannae understand why there would be so many tornados! :O


Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008

I don't know why we have had such bad weather, either, Sharkie. I just know it has been one awful storm after another. I'm glad it's nice where you are, though!:)


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Yeah. I pity ye. ;)


Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008
:D

Hey, Sharkie! How about a swim? Tornados don't work in the water ! 8)


squigly Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Hi Fish and Sharkie!! I'm on here at a decent hour because it's a state holiday today. It's sunny and hot with hardly any wind. I hope the vog stays away. In any case, great weather for swimming!!!

Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008

I think he may already be asleep - it must be about 10:30 at night where he is.


squigly Posted: Jun 11th 2008

that's a very good possibility. Maybe he'll join in tomorrow on the tail end of this TIDAL WAVE>>>>>>>>>>>>
KKKKKKEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRSSSSSSPPPPPLLLLLLOOOOOOOSSSSSHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. - it's 10:30 in the morning here. sometimes people tell me that the UK is 11 hours ahead, others say 12.


Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Hmmm...I wonder which it is? In any case, you and I can still go swimming since we are both in the daylight. It's 3:38 pm here.:D

But I miss Sharkie....


squigly Posted: Jun 11th 2008

ooh yes! it's kind of scary to go swimming at night. you never know what's lurking in the waters...da-dum...da-dum...SHARK!!!!! (or a big sheep with swimming goggles on...lol)|-)


Harry Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Josephine Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Hiya, Fish, old bean! Thank all that is holy that you and yours (not forgetting Ralphie) are OK!

Keeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrbbbbboooooommmmmm!

Splashhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!


Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Believe it or not there are more tornados tonight - not headed for us, but 20 miles away.:O We have a severe storm warning going right now for where we are. Ralphie is very nervous, so I expect we will end up with some sort of nasty storm. But it can't follow me here for our swim, so....
SSSSSSSPPPLLLLLAAAAAAASSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!:D


Fish Posted: Jun 11th 2008

Good Lord! Now there is a tornado warning for us right now!:O:'( I must dash to the basement. Maybe it will just pass over us....hope so!


squigly Posted: Jun 11th 2008

oh no....not another one. I hope your house on the hill stays put!:-(


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Only joking! :D I said that to someone in school! ;) Everything's fine. How do you feel about winning the contest! ;)


conty Posted: Jun 12th 2008

yeah i read your post when you said it before, thats why i said what i did!!! and it feels good to have won, chuffed to mintballs as josephine would say;)


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Yes! You should be! ;)


Fish Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Conty, I am alive and well - though last night was a complete horror!:O Tornados touched down all around us. They kept coming for over 4 hours!:O What's worse is that a Boy Scout Camp an hour out of town was hit directly by a tornado and 4 scouts were killed!!:'( Three of the four come from the town in which I live - the fourth lived in western Iowa.The streets here were flooded - the news had pictures of people wading through water up to their knees or higher trying to get to their cars. What a mess!:-(


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Oh no! :O


stsultimatefan Posted: Jun 12th 2008

yes so did i!


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

WHat?! :O


stsultimatefan Posted: Jun 12th 2008

yes you heard me i was at the scene it was so horrific!


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Yikes!


stsultimatefan Posted: Jun 12th 2008

i know i wasn't part of fish scouting group though!


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 12th 2008

Thank god. :D


Fish Posted: Jun 12th 2008

If this wasn't completely again the rules, stsultimatefan, I'd ask you where you live....


conty Posted: Jun 12th 2008

im sorry to hear that fish, thats terrible:O those poor families:'( but why were they not pulled out if you had advance warnings, seems a bit crazy that the authorities let them carry on doing a camp knowing the weather conditions:O i will say a prayer for those poor boys and their families


Fish Posted: Jun 12th 2008

No - the authorities only had 12 minutes of advance warning. The scouts were already out in the wilderness and could not be reached in time.:'( Even so, the scouts tried to take cover....but really, there was none. And every building in the camp was destroyed. So even if they had come back out the wilderness, they would not have been safe in those buildings. The scouts are going to have to take measures to be sure nothing like this happens again.


squigly Posted: Jun 13th 2008

I read the news today, fish, and was wondering if that tornedo was the same one you were scurrying away from last night. Real sorry to hear about those scouts from your hometown. :'( I read that the tornedo destroyed 1800 acres at that scout camp. Conty, I don't think the scouts would have been able to escape in time. It might have been worse if they were all in transit. Keep safe, fish, as I hear there are more storms lurking.8)

p.s., by my best guess, I think I'm 10 hours behind the UK.

p.p.s., fish, stsultimatefan is not from your parts. I read on another thread he goes to the same school as W&GFan21 (in the UK). Sounds suspiciously like another classmate who liked to pretend.:-|


cinders1 Posted: Jun 13th 2008

your storm and the news about the scouts made our news here in the uk:O it must of been really bad fish, im pleased your safe and well;)


Fish Posted: Jun 13th 2008

Squigly, Conty, and Cinders - thanks for your concern! I am a bit surprised the news went as far as the UK! Squigly, the National Weather Service report states we actually dodged 7 tornados Wednesday night!:O Our relatives on the west end of town had damaged vehicles - dents from hail and a smashed windshield. But we are glad to report no one was injured! :)
Meanwhile, Ralphie refuses to leave my side....I think he is tired of the storms, too!!


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 13th 2008

Yes, good investigating, Squigly. I didn't think about that! :O A little someone who likes to pretend. :-|


Fish Posted: Jun 13th 2008

And whoever that is should be glad it is ONLY pretend!:-|


Mark the shark Posted: Jun 13th 2008

Yes, I agree. :-|


gromitlove Posted: Jun 13th 2008

Squigly, you do have a tentacular memory.

Fish, I am glad you have been spared, but those poor boys.
