Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

Hara Arena, the former venue of the Dayton Hamvention, sustained major
damage in a Memorial Day tornado.

Drone video at
https://www.daytondailynews.com/news/local/hara-arena-roof-blown-off-trotwood-schools-closed-after-tornadoes/5W7NpDohYwDBNwu9fp59bK/

If Hamvention hadn't already moved from Hara Arena, it would surely have
to do so now. Hopefully there was no damage to the new venue at the
Greene County Fairgrounds in Xenia.

73, Paul W8TM

Re: Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

Looks to be the certain end of the facility. Lots of good memories
there. It's a good thing Hamvention moved when it did.

I heard Xenia was also affected. Anyone know the status of Greene County Fairgrounds buildings?

I’ve seen no reports about the Fairgrounds (which is a good thing). There are news reports of trees down in Greene County (which includes Xenia and Beavercreek) and a barn damaged probably due to a tornado. There are also electrical outages.

The fact that the Fairgrounds was not mentioned in local news coverage probably means that the Fairgrounds did not take a direct hit.

FWIW,

Re: Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

According to what I was told, the Greene County Fair Board has agreed to put in air conditioning in the three main buildings if the the Hamvention folks will sign a long-term contract. I think they want something like a ten-year deal. 73 de Carl N8VZ

We get five year contracts for the SeaPac [ARRL Northwestern Division]
Convention at Seaside, OR. It will be very interesting because they are
enlarging the Convention Center and it is supposed to be "pretty much
done" for this year's convention this coming weekend!

Hi Phil,

Just checked the Seaside Convention Center website. A very nice looking
expansion and renovation.
I was last there in 2010 helping out in the Elecraft booth.
Enjoy SeaPac.

I was standing in the long line prior to opening the first day at Xenia. (My first time to "Dayton".) Struck up a conversation with a few people waiting near me. One of them knew the Greene County Fairgrounds. Suddenly he pointed to the area where the entrance gate was and said there used to be a line of tall trees there, but several years ago a set of tornados took them down. Now how eerie and - hopefully - not prophetic.

Re: Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

The “Dayton” Hamvention should be moved to the Seattle area — no air conditioning required. Hold it in Key Arena (or, whatever it will be called by then per whoever owns naming rights). Key Arena is part of Seattle Center where Space Needle is located as well as the almost 60 year old monorail and the bizarre architecture of Paul Allen’s MoPoP (Museum of Popular Culture).

73, phil

P.S. If it were in Seattle, I would attend.

Radio related, I am happily listening to FT8 signals on my K3 while

Re: Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

In reply to this post by Elecraft mailing list

When I attended storm spotter training sessions in Ohio, 35 or so years
ago, the famed "Xenia Tornado" was the standard by which all other Ohio
tornadoes were measured. Some of the Xenia debris in the southwest part
of the state was found in the northeast part. But then, in 1986 I think,
I worked communications in the aftermath of the "Niles Tornado" and saw
streets that had only the basements of homes remaining. Now I live in
Texas where it is more peaceful (tongue in cheek).

So... you’re not worried about the Cascadia subduction zone? If it isn’t one thing, it’s another :)

They should also put in some EV charging stations. "Greene" county is a
misnomer.

Wayne,

I live in AK which one of the most active regions for earthquakes ...
But there have not been 500 of them over the last 22-days. Our most
destructive earthquake since the 1964 "Big One" was last Nov. 30 at
7.1. We were about 85 miles south of the epicenter so suffered no loss.

At least there is no regular season each year for earthquakes. I
grew up in central MI where each spring brought tornado season. We
were at the extreme edge of the normal range for them so didn't worry
(much). Living in tornado country one develops a second-sense of the
wx conditions that spawn them. We lived in houses with basements so
had shelter. Many homes these days are built on concrete slabs so
one has to shelter in the bathroom. Glad those days are long
gone. We just have four volcanos that have erupted since I moved
here within 50-100 miles (and an occasional earthquake).

So... you?re not worried about the Cascadia subduction zone? If it

Re: Hara Arena Hit by Tornado

I never felt any AC in the Hara Arena. Maybe you felt a breeze through the missing ceiling tiles and leaky roof. LOL
