Question from 2010 : Twisters vs. turbines: What if a tornado swept through a wind farm? <http://www.reporternews.com/news/2010/may/09/twisters-vs-turbines-what-if-a-to rnado-swept-a/> Answer 2013 : Turbine blade : <https://www.wind-watch.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/BLs9sMuCQAAgWUn.jpg -large.jpg> So now we have 1/3 of the answer : 1/4 mile away Location of the other two blades : unknown. Video at <http://www.windaction.org/videos/38527> Details at about 1:10 ... 1:32 the bolts are intact, ripped out of their mounting. (I think they come back to the turbine later as well)
