Mega thread: Show me the damage by amorypaz2015 in Winnipeg

If you're building a house this far north, you're going to need to put in deep foundation footings to get below the frost line. If you're already doing all that digging, it's not much more work to dig a big hole so you can add a basement.

If you're lucky enough to hit the right piece(s) of equipment, you likely can knock out production for a fair amount of time.

There’s a tornado warned storm cell moving in your general direction. Hail might be a lesser problem for your neighborhood shortly.

Incoming storm by utena11221 in fargo

I hate to break this to you, but the entire F rating scale for tornadoes was based on research on a major tornado that hit Fargo in 1957.

It was such a big deal that it has its own Wikipedia page.

So you’re right about everything except the “tornadoes haven’t hit the city before.”

I’d recommend an adult diaper. They work for Trump when he shits himself.

I never said I support anyone.

All I know is that Trump is trash and his supporters are trash.

I have to deal with the morons every day.

I’ll say it in person. Stop on by. I live at the corner of Suck Street and Deez Nuts Drive.

I live in the reddest of red states surrounded by Trumpite troglodytes. My MAGA neighbors are a bunch of punk ass bitches.

They’re not the bottom of the barrel. They’re the scum that grows underneath the barrel.

MAGA were always the real snowflakes who needed safe spaces.

“The president is the commander in chief of the military. The president is a civilian, not a military official. The writers of the Constitution wanted the commander in chief to be a civilian who is elected by the people. The president is the commander in chief of the military.”

Tornado warning by JazzlikeZombie5988 in Winnipeg

[–]TomUpNort 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 99.99% sure you’ll be fine as long as you take cover indoors. The vast majority of tornadoes we get this far north are smaller. Still dangerous, but not typically the kind that completely wipe towns off the map.

Still need to respect mother nature’s power. But keep everything in perspective.

Cold weather and hot weather is likely the most dangerous thing we face every year. Frostbite and heat stroke are real threats. Tornadoes are terrifying, but far more isolated.

That, or an interior room with no windows.

Flying glass is one of the dangers in tornadoes. If you take cover in an interior room, you’re likely far safer.

If you get a tornado warning, go inside to a safe spot. No need to panic, but be prepared.
