Severe weather is not a joking matter.

However a friend of mine was in Australia when he was caught in a cyclone. With nowhere to hide he hunkered down in a bathtub in what he hoped was the safest room in the house. The wind increased in intensity and he laid low in the tub hoping the building would not collapse. Suddenly it was dead calm and he reasoned he was in the eye of the cyclone. A few minutes later the wind was back but from the opposite direction. After a time of sheer terror during which he had intense pain in his head the wind died down sufficiently that he could relax a bit. He reached for his head and discovered a cat. The pain was from the very scared cat sinking its claws into his scalp.
