In SE Ontario, along with severe thunderstorm warnings...And I've never seen a tornado here in my life. I shall put up a sign directing them to the nearest trailer park... THAT WAY====>
On avg. the US has over 1000 tornadoes a year. Canada has 80+ on avg. "they seem to be proud of it in a way" Ever chase a tornado ? I did, once.
Houses in Canada hold up better because they're built for colder climates. Just how thick are they ,in general? R-value anyone?
same. Although it looks pretty gnarly in Quebec right now. I can see a lot of lightning across the river.
Yes, really. I followed it for about 3 miles, mostly from a 1/4 mile behind it then it stopped an back-tracked, I'm not sure if it was the lack of air or too much air but the winds killed my engine and I couldn't get it restarted until it was 100 yards in front of me. I had to back down a narrow muddy dirt road 40 mph "the whole 3 miles" to get out of its way. Fuck That Shit! Never Again. Currently Aspen Co., I grew up north of K.C. Mo. I've seen alot of tornadoes in my days.
