Tornado's were north of Denver. The town of Windsor had a direct hit. Know a couple of people there and they had damage to their homes. Dan should be OK. Unless he decided to try riding in that weather???

No riding into the tornado for me! It was a huge one, with softball sized hail. A news reporter reached down and picked one up, it really did look like he was holding a softball. Lots of damage.

Check out the size in the number 4 slide here click here

I can't imagine being on that road where all the cars are in slide 5.

Glad you avoided the nasty stuff Dan. That was some kind of evil weather in those slides. As bad as the damage reports were, it is fortunate the loss of life wasn't much higher.

That was one heck of a hail! I've never seen it that big anywhere.
