When it's windy af but you just have somewhere to be 🫠
A University of Kentucky student got wiped out by a severe thunderstorm while most of Kentucky was under a tornado watch. The National Weather Service warned that winds could reach 40 mph and hail the size of a penny could fall. The student tried taking on the heavy winds but was sent into the air before falling to the ground on campus.

It was a tornado on the University of Kentucky campus, she got up and went to class

Yeah, they didn't cancel classes. It was dumb, but not on her end.

Wasn’t a tornado it was just straight line winds

I was at work when this storm hit. It started coming down and got worse quickly. UK's campus is really big, so she was probably already walking to class by the time it started. There are other videos of students walking in the rain trying to get to shelter. It was nuts!

In past 9 months tornadoes have caused large amounts of damage where I live and we have had massive major hurricane damage. Never a dull moment in the great state of Florida. I am so glad I am 80 feet above sea level so I probably won't have to worry about storm surge.

Classes weren't canceled until noon? She's probably paying out the rear to go to UK, it's not cheap. If classes are in session, there are always students who will try to attend because not going is incredibly expensive.
