In the 37 years I've lived here there have been 3 cross the property. Thank goodness little damage. On one occasion I was forewarned and we were in the tornado cellar (out in the yard, not under the house), about a 9x10 concrete oval with a stack at the N and S end. Tornado came across the front lawn past the house and shelter. Sounded like a train coming by in the N vent and then the sound moved on by to the S vent and disappeared.
5 small tornados Cat 0 I guess in that storm that hit our hill that afternoon. It came at us from the NE (not the SW...... the NE and backed up to the SW).....the storm went E down the Red River, stopped, intensified, and backed up.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power.
