Title: Freak Storm misses my cookers by inches
Post by: Idahawk on August 19, 2014, 08:21:11 PM
I help coach my sons junior tackle football team and about an hour into a beautiful 87 degree sunny day of practice a huge lighting rain and wind storm came up forcing us into the rigs for about an hour , when I got home I found my patio table flipped, glass smashed of course my performer blown 10 ft into the grass , yes the grass and my WSM moved away from the house 5 ft yet still standing upright, lol not a scratch on either one , just amazing ...

Wow that looks bad. But the cookers survived. Too close for comfort.

Glad all came thru unscathed. Those quick, not expected storms are the worst.
