oh no, someone forgot to water the wind turbine.
@yetzt do you have a source for that, where/when did it happen?
@tommy found it randomly on the internet, but @delibrarian did some digging: https://scicomm.xyz/@delibrarian/109620348527131641

@[email protected] Tornados are not good for turbines! From Reddit: Spartan2470 2 yr. ago Here are to more pictures of this. Per /u/jeremyRockit, it was destroyed in the Peyton Creek wind farm in Texas after being hit by a tornado 14 June 2021 causing a fire after a blade broke apart and hit a transformer. This is a Nordex/Acciona 3.15MW. The tower will survive, the blades are made of fiberglass and balsa wood so that’s why they look so pitiful. https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/o2krhm/a_sad_wind_turbine/
