That was pretty much the scene for Hurricane Elvis back in 2003 in Memphis. Roofs ripped off, power poles snapped and dangling, etc. See my post in the Severe Wx thread for more info.

Viacom is missing here too :P And US Airways #9? It should be #2. US is the worst airline. Period. We don't fly out of PHL anymore unless it's a non USAir flight because US's hub is in PHL. I don't think United is that bad though. I flew them to San Francisco years back and found it to be an enjoyable flight.

US airways: overpriced tickets, always losing our luggage (everytime we fly it's always US that loses our luggage), delays for no reason, rude flight attendants and not so good in flight service is what we've experienced on our flights.

I believe that same cell that produced the derechos slammed here in the Philadelphia/Atlantic City area. There was an 81mph wind gust reported at our town. I believe it...because that was the worst thunderstorm I have EVER experienced in my 15 years living in the shore.

I have experienced the worst thunderstorm in my 15 years living on the shore. My parents and I woke up and evacuated to our basement because we thought a tornado came near our house. THe electricity went out, the house shook as if an earthquake struck and we heard what sounded like an Amtrak train crossing the street in front of our house. The lightning was incredible.....Nonstop lightning for almost 3 hours. When we heard the loud roar outside, our windows were almost buckling in from the wind and thunder was so loud that I thought the rumble alone could break something in our house. This was the first time we evacuated for anything. But there was no tornado. Either it was a microburst or some very nasty straight line winds that came thruogh our area because a tree came crashing down a few blocks from me. Also parts of our shingles have torn off from the wind.

I went to bed shortly after midnight and at around 1 was in a deep sleep when all of the sudden my bed (which is next to the window) starting shaking. I then noticed the air conditioner turned on and off at least 3 times. The lights started flickering and the window sounded like it was about to cave in. WHen I saw the lightning and wind outside, I bolted out of my bed fearing a tornado was near us and my parents at the same time ran out of their bedroom and all 3 of us were running downstairs to the basement because our house has never shaken so much from the wind. We didn't see much afterwards and I managed to take a video of the storm from my house but I'm not sure if I can upload it since the quality is not great.

I am without power right now along with, 170,000 other people in the area and we don't know when it'll be back. I'm in the library right now. 3 people in our area have been killed by the storm. This was definitely more scary then exciting...but I gotta admit: If this happened during the day it'd probably be the opposite xD

I wonder how this would help (or hurt) the healthcare industry as a whole.

I'm not a fan of politics but I couldn't help sharing my thoughts. What do you guys think of Obamacare? It's been upheld. According to CNN and even Romney they say it's a disaster in the making. Millions of ppl would lose their employer health insurance because they'd be forced to have this insurance policy. Doesn't look good come November..:/ (feel free to move this post if needed, didn't check the other politicial threads)
