Have you ever had a problem with the weather that caused something to happen, such as a waterfall in the living room, or almost blew away, something fun (though annoying at the time).
It's currently thundering, raining, pouring, etc. and the living room now has a fully fledged waterfall to a point the wallpaper was bulging and I had to put a pin in it and it came gushing out. Then we had a painting almost peeing from the water trickling from the hook in the back and pouring into icecream tubs.
GOD HELP US! :D Anyone else got worst weather damage?

I do recall from a thread while back some of the others are scraed of storms
If I remeber rightly Zekey said he ran in inside when it started thundering and fell over and cut his leg up
It doesn't bother me however
I'm just sacred of people, death, pain, fighting, chavs, failure, heights, andything dangerous and disease.

One morning, after only hearing a bit of rain that night, we woke up to find our huge 15 ft round trampoline (with a heavy saftey netting around it and dug into the hillside) moved about 6 ft on top of the next door neighbors fence, and partly stuck in his tree.
It took 6 people to lift it back into our yard, which makes me wonder how hard the wind must have been to make it go so far in the first place. My dad thinks it was a small tornado, but that's extremely rare over here.

Moovok, what great timing you have.
Have you not picked up a newspaper or watched the news recently? I can only assume that you havent, and have missed out on people in the US being airlifted from what is left of their homes, or families searching for their loved ones. Im sure that the many people who lost everything over the last few days to what could be one of the most costly and destructive hurricanes EVER are having a much worse time than you.

Yes I do know about the hurricane as this thunderstorm is caused from that as well. I didn't mean to offend anyone and I know people have had a worst situation because of hurricanes, etc. I'm sorry if this thread being started has done that to anyone. I only did it to see if anyone else had any interesting weather related incidents such as the moving trampoline, that's all...

You could have left it for a few weeks to find out. How hard would that have been?
