I work in Thornton and live in FC (50 miles one way) One evening a few years ago I had just gotten home when my daughter called to say she was sick in a parking lot just north of E470 off I25. So being the dad that I am I turned around and headed back down. There was a tie-up on the interstate so I took country road 7 to by-pass the interstate. The winds and rain were picking up and hail was falling. As I drove inline with Longmont I started to notice tree branches on the roadway and more leaves than I had ever seen. All of a sudden my viability was next to nothing but I kept going. Once I got back on the interstate I started to hear the reports that there was a small tornado that had just messed with Longmont. To this day when my daughter gives me grief I remind her I drove through a tornado to come and help her!
