That happened to me in St Louis during our last tornado. The worst part was they were blocking an exit on the highway where multiple gas stations and public parking garages were located.
It's fucking selfish when it's just hail, when there's a tornado less than a mile to the south it's fucking dangerous.
What a small world. I was driving south on 170 with my wife at that same time. We luckily were right before the exit to the Galleria when the hail started. We quickly ducked into their parking garage until the tornado had passed.
Theres dozens of us. Dozens!
I grew up in the Midwest. They showed us videos of what an overpass looks like when a tornado goes through. That shit ain't saving anybody. You'd honestly be safer in a rapidly flooding ditch than under one of those when a twister comes through.
Don't you love these little test-runs for societal collapse?
