    What direction is it moving? Looks to be south of here now, but if it's coming SW to NE or anything along those lines, it could be coming my way.
  • salto
    Tornado possibly spotted in Clark county.

    Channel 7 reporting 1-2 inch hail and rotation in West Milton. Too bad ccrunner does not have a basement.

    I believe the storms are moving South East.

    Hopefully the tornado is moving directly at Said and he gets swallowed up.

    Right, salto?

    When I saw the title of those thread I knew immediately it was started by the most pathetic poster on this site.

    Hint: It's not Salto.

    I drove to BG today. Urbana was getting fucked when I drove through. Ping pong ball size hailed the car I was in (which was a work car so I didn't care)

    He didn't get it the first 50 times you've said this, but I'm sure this time it'll sink in and he'll leave.

    If not, I'll be sure to tell him a 52nd time, and maybe even a 53th.

    I went to Cedar Point last night and around 8:30 or so on my way back home I drove through a horrible storm. I seriously thought I was near a tornado or something. It didn't help that I was on a stupid few mile long bridge crossing the water at the time. I checked after I got home and apparently it was just 50+ mph winds and large hail, but whatev, I still say it was a tornado or two.

    YOu in Philadelphia?
    Hear its always sunny there...

    We got one small storm in the morning yesterday but nothing after. Everything kept popping up just east and south close enough for games to get delayed

    Well... you could have driven 20 minutes out of your way and not crossed the Edison Bridge.

    Probably would have been worth it if I knew that crap was coming. I didn't check the weather and it kind of came out of nowhere.

    It was fun looking back knowing that I did not crash and die, but it was pretty scary at the time. I went with just my 3 year old and the wife and 1 year old stayed at home...I thought for sure my 3yo would be freaking out but she was singing away, not a care in the world.

    Also...no way that bridge is only 2,000 feet...It was easily 3-5 miles last night ;)

    They will close the bridge in the winter due to ice. 2000 ft must be from non-land and not include the built up land causeway portion. From land mass to land mass it is between 1.5-2 miles.

    Did you ride the Woodstock Express with her?

    heck yeah, best kid ride there. She was just tall enough by 1" to go on it last year when she was 2 and she loved it...We rode it 5-10 times per visit and it was always the favorite. Same thing yesterday, still the favorite. The new "Lake Erie Eagles" was the only 1 out of the 2 new rides she is tall enough for, but she said that is now her 2nd favorite ride. For a family/kids ride, Lake Erie Eagles is pretty cool.....A lot better than the lolly swings, or whatever they are called...
