I dodged that big twister Mon nite

[green 4 acres]

Monday night we had a big squall line come threw around 7:40pm. I was watching the news as all stations had the weather guy talking about it . There was a small tornado or two up past St. Joe and they were focusing on that . When it was getting near KC, I was lining up the radar with what would hit us and noticed a shark fin shaped element in the red and green to the radar .

Weather guy never said anything but that strong thunderstorms would occur , but then this line was moving 50-60 mph at times .

Then there is a report of severe damage at Johnson Co. airport and a home like a tornado. The wind blowing 50 mph from the SW, but minutes later it was dead still with a bit of hail. There had been a constant howl from the wind but now I hear a distant odd howl, more of a roar.

Then came the strong NW wind, rain and tornado damage 4-5 miles NW of me then a F3 hits Oak Grove a bit later 400+ homes with severe damage 40-60 totaled, It was 1/4 mile wide and over 158 mph winds ....that tornado jumped right over me by lining up the track.
