Is that the marina that was destroyed by the heavy snow load?

That is a marina at Lake Tenkiller that was hit by a Tornado last Thursday. It flipped one set of docks with boats in tow (75 feet deep, double slips) on to the adjacent set of docks, crushing both sets of docks as well as the boats they contained. It also leveled the gas dock/store shown on the left. Up-rooted large trees on the shore. Pretty small tornado for Oklahoma standards. I would guess EF-1. My dock was a mile or so in front of the touchdown. It cause my neighbor's private dock to break away from it's moorings and spent the night bashing into my dock. Sorry to hijack your thread, Ron. :hijack:

No worries, Man that sucks. At least when you have hurricanes down here we have lot's of warning. I would take that any day over living with tornadoes!!!!!
