did it knock the combine over a little or is it just got a flat tire.
A few days ago, the news first reported a possible tornado South of Burns OR but that got changed to a microburst later. A few power poles got blown down (I'd guess around Rome or Lawen) and State 78 was closed for a while.
Tornadoes are rare (I saw one east of Mt Vernon a few years ago) but not unknown in Oregon and I've seen the results of several microbursts in the woods. Swaths of trees several hundred feet wide by up to over a quarter of a mile get snapped off, a few uprooted and all point in the same direction. These were trees in the 1 to 2 1/2 ft size. One such storm also dumped 2 1/2" diameter hail in 1996 locally, lots of broken windshields and lost of dents in vehicles.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
