Tornado in Blachownia

, ,

My hometown, 15 August 2008, was hit by tornado.

Three people were killed, more than thirty injured people in hospitals, thousands of broken trees, hundreds totaly destroyed homes, destroyed cars, will tear roofs, traffic accidents.

In the same town was destroyed 90 percent of trees in the old oaks, linden and poplar.
In the forest destruction some 50 meters wide and several kilometers long.
Some villages were completely destroyed, in some houses were all damaged.

Damages are erased to this day...

CNN video

And second video I recorded one day after tornado in forest.

And one more - compilation of photos before, in time and after this tornado.

Broken tree as matches, the destruction of entire towns, landscape like after the war...
Sad and depressing view of this once green town...

Tornadoes do not happen only in USA - is the world wide problems...

Arcy, have u heard about the image of eyes in the skies during big storms? I have two videos made by different peope in diferent places (Crimea and Lviv) with a period of 6 months - one can see a very distinct image of eyes - identical on both videos!!!

I have heard of this but during this storm and I was at work at a place situated 15 kilometers.
The only thing I saw the black sky and hundreds of lightning. With the distance I saw not even the same center of tornado simply because the sky was black for this monstrous rain.
Friends told me to see only walls of water. Terrible noise, visibility limited to the 1 metre.
No became brave who got out of the building.
So i is not no one reported on the eyes of the storm :frown:

Do You now where i can see this movie with eye?
