So I'm planting corn about 4 miles from home. Listening to the new Cannibal Corpse. Watching some storm clouds build for what looked like a nice rain. No storm warnings on the radio.
All of a sudden the wife calls saying its hailing at home. I tell her to get the vehicle up to my parents place to put it inside.
Literally 1 minute later, as she is on the road and as I watch from 3 miles away, a fuckin' tornado drops down out of nowhere. I watch, from the tractor, as this thing bounces up and down on the ground.
I quickly made the decision to pull the planter out of the ground and find high gear over to my pickup. I jumped in the pickup and made it to a house close by the field I was in.
While I was at that house, two more tornados touched down within a mile of me.
I just went and surveyed the damage close to my house. It just ripped some fence out, and tore up a field.
The worst news is that hail fuckin' killed a BUNCH of our wheat, and it dented the crap out of my wife's Trailblazer.
It all just immediately happened with basically no warning.
