I've lived in tornado alley in Texas all my life, remember at least 5 times seeing funnel clouds, been IN two, the worst one in 1957, when two ran parallel for 30 miles. I was 9 years old then, recall helping Dad help neighbors who lost their homes (rural area south of Dallas). Some lost just the roof, some complete house. One barn exploded out as the air rushed back in after the vaccuum. One neighbor was plowing with a Farmall M, lightning (sp?) started so he abandoned tractor and ran for a shallow ditch....he held an old plank in front of his head....plank had gravel imbedded in it like shotgun pellets.....he survived, but his new home lost roof and got heavy rain, ruined all. One neighbor had his home"s contents scattered for 1/2 mile. Our home held up cause Dad built it like a barn, but we lost every tree on our acre houseplace. Our rural church was destroyed and a big old beautiful historic schoolhouse dissapeared in pieces. They can come up fast, usually hail first, lightning and then wall cloud, then incredible wind. The roaring sound is no joke, will never forget it.

Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
