HOUSTON More than 100 homes have been damaged after a tornado touched down in a residential area outside Houston, authorities in Texas said Monday. No injuries were reported. Photos and drone video posted on Facebook by the Harris County Precinct 3 constable showed roofs with shingles ripped off. Some debris blocked roads. The damage affected the Memorial Northwest neighborhood, according to the office of Mark Herman, the constable.
"I was doing some basic bushcraft camping - nothing fancy, just finding a random spot in the wilderness. I had a site set up, fire going, etc. Everything was ready for a weekend of camping when something in my gut told me to leave." "I had spent a good chunk of time setting up, but the feeling was overpowering. So I broke camp and left, thinking, 'Okay, I'll do it next weekend."
but I think we need a more fortified shelter. No longer vacationers, now survivalists, we need to find someplace with a cellar, someplace welcoming to wanderers - a church, a school, maybe a neighborly family farm? Fragments of a heroic fantasy appear to me: we're outrunning a tunnel of wind and cloud, throwing open heavy bulkhead doors and slipping into a warm, candlelit bunker, where the shock and adrenaline of the moment fade and are replaced by an animal relief.
