How's the weather?

Seeing the stuff out of Alabama reminds me of what I saw when I was helping with cleanup in NO after Katrina. Only this is seems somewhat more "chaotic with bits and pieces just scattered everywhere by the tornado. Some things you just never forget, and I wish I could forget what it felt like working in the Lower 9th one day. Such an ungodly/unnatural, haunting feeling...I never want to experience that again.

Thoughts and prayers are with my fellow BPers and everyone else in the South that have been affected by this. Hang in there, guys.

I was watching the video of the aerial shots of the storm's path and some of it is just hard to fathom. You'll see a house, the back half is gone like it was bitten off by Jaws, but the front yard looks ready for a photo shoot. Green grass, flowers...

Unreal how something so large and so violent can utterly destroy one thing and something next to it looks undisturbed.

And we thought our weather was bad:

Sunday night we had a big thunderstorm throughout Oahu, and then late yesterday afternoon another bigger one--the biggest I've seen in my 25 years here--kicked up. I was at Ala Moana beach when twin waterspouts appeared about a mile off shore (CNN website has video of it). I had just cut my swim short due to lightning a few miles off up in the hills, and immediately after I went to my car and saw folks pointing out to sea, and I turned around to see that the waterspouts had just started forming (about 5:40 pm). I got my BlackBerry Storm and took a few photos...I've attached a cropped version of the best one.
