Six Six Six User ID: 3753361 United States 07/26/2012 07:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's really just normal summertime storms...really...I'm here in the northeast and am watching them roll in now. Calm down derecho-heads. Quoting: Oh for cryin' out loud... 14223177 Normal summertime storms don't usually have 60-80 mph winds that down trees and powerlines. They also don't include hail storms. Not to mention the strange amount of lightning stikes over a short period. None of this is normal. Don't throw sunshine on my doom rain parade mister! Biko |

There was a prophecy from a few years ago that said straight-line winds will take out ENTIRE COMMUNITIES. (it did not use the term 'derecho' but it seems clear it was referring to non-tornadic winds) So, this could be the Preview Show for the Community Beat-Down in the Prophetic Future! |
