Hit the ada area about 20 minutes ago, sounded like a freight train for about 5 minutes or so and when it hit the house, there was creaking sounds than when I get out of bed in the mornings
This Summer we were pulling the RV east of Rawlings Wy down I-80 to visit a friend in that city. We felt a jolt that seemed like hitting a curb and getting moved back into the lane. Wife and I just looked at each other and on we went not knowing what just happened. About two miles later, a wind gust moved our 16,000 + 5th wheel and the F-250 into another lane within feet. Frightening experience to say the least.I lived in Douglas, WY for a couple of years. Those winds were crazy! My car was blown into the other lane due to the strong cross winds.
A friend of mine named Ditch worked for a compressor repair company in Douglas and Casper. He said on the job arrival one day he opened his company truck door and the wind took it off. He said he would have been in trouble but the news was reporting a freight train blew off its tracks that same day.I lived in Douglas, WY for a couple of years. Those winds were crazy! My car was blown into the other lane due to the strong cross winds.
Ive spent a bit of time on well pads in the Casper/Douglas area several years ago and am back to spending time every 2-3 months in the Gillette area now. I think any office folks that work with the patch up there need to spend at least 3 days up there in January or February to truly earn their place.Yeah... I spent some formative years living in Casper, WY. For the most part the wind here is for rookies (non-tornado related). Especially considering some of the temps that went with those WY winds.
Been like that for several hours in western Oklahoma, wind howling things getting blown around. Had a tree limb come down on my roof.
Everyone Ok. Thought a plane hit the house at first. No damage I can tell but haven't got on roof to check for sure due to wind. Early this morning wind blew limb off roof blocking front door. Friend came over and we dragged it away from house with tractor.Everybody okay?? Didn't do any damage I hope.
