Nobody hurt and no structural damage except small piece of tin on a lean to. About about 150 ft behind my house.

Was it a confirmed tornado? We had some wind shear come through last year and did essentially the same thing.

Jay, glad you and your home are OK, started to hit the like button for the pictures, but had second thoughts;   don't like all that extra work.  :handgestures-thumbupright:

It was a confirmed tornado. I have minor damage compared to some. 1700 residents without power 3 or 4 lost homes and many many cars destroyed. Thankfully mostly woods in its path.

Glad no one was hurt and that your property damage was minimal. Prayers for everyone who wasn't as fortunate. Don is right tornadoes are a bad deal, we have had plenty here in Oklahoma. When I was a member of the volunteer fire dept, I spent countless hours doing search and rescue following these storms. Seen and heard things I wouldn't wish on anyone. Stay safe in the cleanup process

We had three tornados in our area. They said one hit then split into three two EF 1 and one EF 2. We got the EF 2. This is where it started.

We started cleanup this weekend so I gave old faithful some exercise.
