When you are having dinner on a patio and you see an AA 787 landing in Indianapolis -- you know Chicago is not having a good day.
Dear crowd,
Come to Tornado alley in the spring time and tell all the old 'freight dogs' about weather! ADS based for my freight days in Lr20 series and DA20's and a 'significant weather event' occurred about every 4 days. Cold front, squall line, occluded front or retreating warm front.

And goin' to work on those days! It was fun with an RCA AVQ46 green screen blind mans cane, (radar).
You look it up, they are so arcane the most prominent sites with pictures is ebay.
IMHO, it ain't braggin' if you survived it, and it was hard to abandon the cockpit while wandering around in the midst of 'a significant weather event', or just fly on the 'nice days'. Ever been sittin' in a cockpit at 450 and lookin' up at a cell toppin' 70,000 feet?
The 'freight dogs' lived with weather, I guess that's Global whatever.

It was bad. There were reportedly three possible tornadoes in that area. Yikes!
