thanks, that really shows how big and intense of a storm it was -- nm - prayformojo Jul 3, 11:09
I love that overnight, everyone in the area knows what a derecho is. I had no idea. -- nm - loosilu Jul 3, 11:04 15
- Looks like a cross between a tornado and a hurricane. I'm sure we can blame global warming for this, and we'll be seeing more of them. -- nm - Mop Jul 3, 11:13
- I had never heard of the term before -- nm - znufrii Jul 3, 11:05 13
  - I had never heard the term until it was posted on Wikipedia news. -- nm - Walt_Disney Jul 3, 11:24
  - That's what she is saying -- nm - con_carne Jul 3, 11:11 6
    - yes. -- nm - loosilu Jul 3, 11:13
    - yes, and I'm offing my own anecdote to reinforce her point. -- nm - znufrii Jul 3, 11:12
    - We all know it's her crazy disaster machines that generated the storm. -- nm - Mop Jul 3, 11:12 3
      - OMG!!! there is actually a guy on youtube who thinks the government made the storm worse. no joke. -- nm - loosilu Jul 3, 11:13 2
        
        Of course there is. We live in a paranoid world where you have cheap access to mass-media outlets -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 3, 11:13 1
        
        Here's one such video. They're claiming the gov had to make up a name for the storm it created. -- (link) - loosilu Jul 3, 11:22 [youtube]
  - It's Spanish for "right". That should clear that right up. -- nm - Mop Jul 3, 11:10 4
    - Watch out for those izquierdos! -- nm - Strongbad Jul 3, 11:14
    - From my understand, it can sometimes mean "right", but in this case it more directly translates as "straight". -- nm - Don Homer Jul 3, 11:14 2
      - What's the word for when a word has more than one definition? It's one of those. -- nm - con_carne Jul 3, 11:18
      - Of which the latin deriviation translates to big-assed storm. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 3, 11:16
