Not really scary, per se. But the Bayou Corne sinkhole video stuck with me for a while after I saw it. Just the eerie feeling of seeing 70-80+ foot trees disappear in a matter of seconds because the lake was swallowing them whole. That fricked me up a little bit. Nature is terrifying as frick sometimes.

The Moore, Oklahoma EF5 tornado was scary as anything I've ever seen in nature.

I watched a documentary on this. terrifying

It may have been reenactments based off of people’s testimonies but there was a lot of footage of the aftermath

Terrifying

ours went supringly well

The Church was the holden pen
other Churches and religious organizations feed
State Guard provided supplies and a presence

The rest we made up as we went along


had an area for pets and vet care
a triage, 0 deaths
They had dialysis machines, the whole bit


Local Govt and the plan, the Churches were ready to do their part as well


literally Church and State hand in hand, saving American lives


from sea to shining sea

that’s good

The PMAC is sometimes used for bedridden folks - so it was pretty calm but all people working the shelter are expected to help change diapers and such.

I literally got a medal


the Texas Guard guys smashed a Ginger Ale can, tied a ropee through it, and hung it on my neck when I witnessed the proper disposal of an American flag, heavily storm-damaged, after I found it in the parking lot

Lee Geenword played in the background


those 10 days we went thru things
like nobody on site with the alarm code, which if not entered in the next 15 minutes, all hell would break loose

still had 600 some poor souls on premises


but with 7 minutes to spare we got the code

That volcanic eruption on White Island scared the crap out of me. I've been to many volcanos and the thought never crossed my mind.

I have one granddaughter that isn't scared of bad weather. If there is a storm off the coast and waves are over my head, she laughs when thrown into the beach. We were eating ice cream one time and the whole area lit up with a lightening bolt. Never flinched.

"Well here comes the thunder". 5 years old. Grandma is ducking for cover.

Another Pecos Hank video which reminds me of her.
