    If a tree falls.....

    On a man in the Valley would it make any noise?

    Today the wind was ferocious-rain was falling sideways at times!

    You quoted my typo, I must hang my head in the shamefull way of my people.

    So the dems would have a bonfire with the fallen tree if it was felled on a member of the GOP?

    I'll share the blame, I was a newspaper proofreader for the hi-school rag once.

    It was crazy weather today, if they could have lit a match? More power to them!

    Oh, Richard, you are so sheltered, weatherwise! We often have sideways rain, but even better is snow falling up! Yup, when the wind hits a building, the updraft will swing the snow up! It's easier to see snow, so you can notice it falling down, blowing sideways, or heading up instead of down!

    That's a low blow-everyone knows palm trees don't do well in the low to mid 30's!

    LOL, this was crazy weather.

    The wind usually blows from north to south, it was reversed,with rain today.
    This is end-of-the-world stuff to me.

    Good grief girl!! You've never seen sideways rain?? - it's just the wind blowing the falling rain - just like snow blows sideways a lot in a heavy snow storm.

    You need to get out more.........

    The thread starts with a man being hurt by a falling tree and turns into a thread where everyone is hyping the bad weather in their part of 'town'.

    The tree may not make any noise but the man would at least say : OOOFFF!
    I would think anyway.
