SVT MXZ XRS Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Thunder snow is pretty rare. I remember seeing it a couple times back in the late 70s and 80s. I see a Tornado warning for Highland Township and surrounding areas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had one touch down at the park we were playing baseball at a few years ago. Came home and our lawn furniture and trampoline were in the neighbors yard. Cast aluminum tables and chairs, not lightweight shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That area is requesting search and rescue crews. The FD by me is sending a crew. Lots of touch downs around I39 and I80? The storms are moving east and not breaking up like they normally do. Sirens have been going off by me for an hour. Holy fuck is it raining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
