Nope... just a bit of wind/rain... Had it been a tornado, those cars wouldn't be in that part of the state, nor would the tents, etc.

 

[Project TNX]

Wow, I live 60 miles away and the weather was never that bad and we never heard anything about it on the news.

looks like a couple of scratches and a broken window or two. those cars would be on there backs if it were a real tornado. disturbing non the least.

I would agree, must not have been a tornado at all, but it must have really upset the guys there with the damage done. Sickening.

I drove through that storm on the way home from vacation. I saw lots of Vettes and Vettes on trailers parked underneath underpasses waiting it out. I saw a tree crush a Camry and saw some big stuff flying around. I was in my minivan and had to stop in Gettysburg because I couldn't keep it on the road anymore. I've never been in wind like that before. It was scary but I had to play it cool so the kids didn't freak out.

Glad no one was hurt. My dad and his brothers go every year. This year, only my uncle Ed made it. He had his '57 there but bugged out before the storm because it was so hot.
