FIRST-EVER TONADO WARNING FOR SAN FRANCISCO: At 5:53 a.m. on Saturday, phones blared across San Francisco with an unusual warning: Tornado.
The National Weather Service issued the warning — which expired just minutes later — writing, “At 551 AM PST, a severe thunderstorm capable of producing a tornado was located near Daly City, moving northeast at 45 mph.”
The fast-moving rotation approaching Ocean Beach prompted the historic alert for the whole city and northern Peninsula. It was the first tornado warning on record for the area, National Weather Service meteorologist Dalton Behringer told The Standard.
Like the warning for the tsunami that wasn’t earlier this month, Saturday’s tornado alert buzzed and blared on thousands of cellphones. The message advised people to “TAKE COVER NOW! Move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building. Avoid windows and protect yourself from flying debris. If you are outdoors or in a vehicle, move to the closest substantial shelter and protect yourself from flying debris.”
I live right next to SF, and we got the warning. There were short, immediate bursts of unreal, enormous storm sounds that would stop and start abruptly, lasting only seconds, like someone was using an on/off switch. I have been here my whole life, and this is the first time something like this has ever happened. A few days ago, the skies were plaid with chemtrails. I have never seen it that bad before. This felt artificial and not natural.
Tornados in San Fran?
What's next? Hurricanes in North Dakota? Blizzards in Phoenix?
Just to tuck away in your memory bank, the was s massive blizzard from North Dakota to far beyond Michigan in 1978 that it makes this stuff laughable. Let's hope it was "natural" back then.
