this is a good video, i also have video from this day of the storms, may 26, i think the day was. tornadoes are rare here in vermont, but the fact that they do happen is, quite incredible. it makes me want to try to engineer buildings with certain standard features tuned toward damage reduction from a myriad of weather phenomenon in mind, including wind, hail, earthquakes, floods, and just about everything in-between.

That is what we do, engineering our home and other buildings here on our farm for maximum durability so they can survive any weather, any snow load, etc. A side benefit is far lower maintenance, lower energy usage and actually lower cost since we've thought through things so carefully. There are a lot of details such high mass giving high thermal mass which reduces energy consumption and increases durability. Arches and curves are another set of trick up our sleeve.
