As I reach highway 9, another tornado touches down not 300 meters on my right, as I am heading West. Pulled me off the road pretty hard almost pulled me into a ditch. Dropped the ebrake and pressed on my brakes with all the force I could. Car didn't budge. Then came an outward "explosion" of just all types of crap! Signs, dirt, grass, dust, poles! A taurus 2 cars infront of me got smacked by one breaking his back right window and passenger door. He was okay and was laughing about it after. Anyway when I saw the wind die down I took off again and got onto 12th where it was tornado-less! As I look around all I see are flipped cars, traffic jams, sirens, poles everywhere, signs everywhere. Except for a lot of dirt and grass nothing hit my car (thank god!) although my front axle seems to be responding weird (going to check it out later) but I was scared sh**less! Never had one spiral right on me before. I was lucky, there were quite afew cars overturned and others blown into ditches. Couple boats from a nearby place were flipped. Finally got to friends house to find him sitting on his porch with a beer open watching the clouds!

I'm glad you are all right. A question: Did you not know that your area was going to have a tornado outbreak? I've been following this outbreak online on tornadovideos.net and on News9.com and I'm in Ohio! I knew this outbreak was going to happen for 3 days ago! Then again, I LOVE tornadoes.
People, please check the weather before heading out. It may save your life.
