Default oooookay, looks like THAT's over.... the tornado passed about 2 miles from our house....

just outside of Salisbury, but the hail hit us good!! the lightning is still close, but i did manage a run out to the TT to check for hail damage (no garage!)... no broken windows at least... can't tell about body or paint damage until daylight.

<deeep breath> Now i need a drink..............

Default They are different.

Tornado comes and goes pretty fast. A hurricane can stay around for hours and just keep pouding you with wind and rain, not to mention the tidal surges if you are near the coast as some of us are! lol Hell, nor'easters are almost as bad in some ways a a hurricane. We had a 4 foot WAVE go down my street a few years ago!
