Had a microburst last night....

 

[Johnny Mullet]

Oh crap! Any damage?

 

[PNW_Steve]

Unfortunately yes.

House, fence and bus all took a beating. Still assessing the damage.

I'm sorry to see that you got that microburst they can really be bad... I am glad no one was hurt and its only superficial damages ... God looks out for us each and every day

Dang, that sucks. Glad you're okay though.

I had never heard of a microburst until a couple years ago when i saw an insane video of one where tress went sideways and you couldnt even see more than a couple feet because of the blinding sideways rain and debris. I've lived a fairly sheltered life in texas and haven't gotten out much and i had never heard of them before

Had a microburst hit my place in Tomball as hurricane Rita came through in '05 to the East of Houston. It hit just as I was opening the door on my Cherokee and snapped both hinges off. Also took the top off of an 80 foot Sycamore tree a few feet away. Was like an overhead bomb blast for a few seconds...then nothing. Weird.

Microbursts are believed to be responsible for many of the disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle.

Actually this is how i stumbled onto them. I had a watched a documentary on tv about the bermuda triangle and and proceeded to hit youtube for a bit just reading more about it, and came across microbursts

Microbursts make aliens dissaper? I didn't know that....

It's actually the Aliens responsible for the Microbursts!

Fortunately, those fenders are fairly cheap and very easy to replace.

Unfortunately it did more damage than just the fender.

I will deal with it after I get the house and fence taken care of.

How is the big bus?

It is fine. It got wet inside. It rained sideways for a couple of minutes.
