Nope

They were just talking to him on the radio when I was driving home. When he started mowing the tornado wasn't there. His wife took pictures for the family and this one went world wide.

Ken may not be an idiot!  I've had photos vanish when copying the photo in one browser tab and pasting in another.  It shows up in the draft, but not in the post.  This is reproducible, and a bug!

You have to link to the URL or attach the photo to get it to show up reliably.

exactly right. not my fault the system is stuffed.

rob may apologise in writing or preferably, by bringing something seriously good for today's video.

and not arriving an hour early (or i may be tempted to delay things for so long that it is peak hour traffic for you!).

I'm betting this is photoshopped.  You don't screw around with these things.  I guarantee you if the wife saw this coming, the last thing on her mind would have been to stop long enough to take a photo.  If it's a real photo, she's a total idiot.

i got the pic from the Australian which is our leading serious newspaper, or one of them in a very thin field. i would be very surprised if they had not carefully checked to see if it was faked, but who knows.

of course, you are assuming that there are not total idiots everywhere. they can't all be in australia.

True anecdote from me ( who lives in Alberta) 

in Columbus Ohio two years ago ... started to rain/thunder/lightning one afternoon ... went outside the hotel to have a smoke ( no smoking inside in hotels in Ohio) ... next was an air raid siren going off ... I asked one of the chamber maids what the siren was for ... her answer was "it's a tornado warning" ... no fear of something I know nothing about I headed around the corner of the building looking for the tornado ... she calmly told me "you should go inside and stay away from the windows" .

if you don't know/understand what you are dealing with ... you are (sometimes) not smart enough to be afraid .

Correct.  We have a particularly big one living right here in America.  :innocent:

Nope - its real and has been verified.

I read that the picture is indeed real, but that the tornado is actually much farther away than the picture suggests, and heading in a different direction.  Bit of an illusion, but a real picture nonetheless.

They guy said he was "keeping an eye on it" while he mowed!

And he apologised for it ;)
