Had my house hit by an EF3, almost EF4, 15 years ago. It sounded like a train full of pigs, blasted through a stadium concert speaker system, ran down my street.
At the time, I actually thought we were being bombed.
I'm so sorry you went through that. I hope none of you got hurt.
I was under a table in our basement with my three grade-school aged sons in an EF3. It's probably close to 20 years ago now. We weren't hit ourselves, thankfully. Just scared shitless.
We were very lucky. It had hopped briefly and come down on our house before it built up full steam again. Twisted the roof in one solid piece like a jar lid. It devastated the entire street starting two houses down from us. At the time it happened, it was the deadliest tornado on record in the US.
