As some of you may have heard we had some funnels drop down in Virginia yesterday. Unlike the '93 tornado this one was tagged as an F-1 with only a few people injured (Scratches and bruises). The Interesting part is that this one hit only a few hundred feet from where the '93 funnel hit. I had two client networks just on the other side of the plaza that I had to restart this morning since officials wouldn't let me in yesterday evening. I took this pics before I left the area.

They were taken behind the plaza with Target and Best Buy (Just south of the mall.). As a matter of fact the larger building in the background is the loading dock area for Best Buy. The office park were two of my clients have offices is behind this plaza.

If your familiar with the tornado that hit in '93, this plaza is just behind the location where the Walmart was destroyed (It's now a Sams Club.).

Yep... Was working for Henrico Fire Sept. at that time and remember that tornado well. That one also tore up a path there on the Chesterfield side of the James at the Varina-Enon Bridge, if I remember correctly.

Yes I remember that. One of the truck drivers said he looked out his side window a saw a wall of water coming right at him.
That was one nasty funnel.
