We moved here the year after Katrina and Rita. We were on vacation during Ike and missed the entire thing, including the power outage. Ike did have many tornadoes, one which hit downtown and blew out many of the windows to the tallest buidling in Texas:
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf -
Corporate safety sent that very picture to warn those of us in Denver last week during a major storm to stay away from the windows. There were a couple tornado warnings back-to-back. I happened to be in a pretty flimsy construction office at the time, so I was actually nervous during a tornado warning for the first time since I was about 8 years old.Originally posted by Moliere View PostWe moved here the year after Katrina and Rita.

Rain and flooding in Rexburg like I've never seen before.
Correction, since the dam broke I haven't seen flooding like this.Last edited by RC Vikings; 07-15-2014, 09:20 PM.Comment

A 1000-yr storm near the Utah/Arizona/Nevada border. I-15 will be close for 3-4 days. Yowza, that is an insane storm.
Notice the van being washed away at about 1:20.

That's what my day will be like this afternoon. I have to fight 10 inches of snow on the mountain to get my camper trailer out. Hopefully, I won't have to chain up.Originally posted by wuapinmon View Postsigpic

There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach FinstockComment
