I'm careful to take shelter when there are warnings.

I went through one in '98 which took much of the roof off of my house, tore off the electrical mast, left me without utilities and shelter for several days. It was an F3 tornado, 1陆 miles wide. It left my neighborhood in ruin. There were trees blocking the street that weren't even from my neighborhood. Miraculously, only one person in the city was killed.
@PhoenixPhail Hey, I just wanted to apologize for the misunderstanding yesterday. Most people, when they start referencing the Rothschild family, that's what they mean. I assumed.

@PhoenixPhail geez, my brother's house got hit by one back in 2000 something

Ever been in one?

I was working in an office building when it hit, I had no windows and didn't know what was happening, sounded like a freight train. My rear windscreen of the car was laying on the back seat

@Kstrong yes, a bad one

When I was in labor with my kid there was a tornado nearby but they let me stay in the tub since we were in an interior bathroom. I was afraid I was going to die giving birth for a half hour or so until the storm passed.

@Starcrossed I'm glad it all turned out well. I know that kind of anxiety. You must have been so relieved when the storm had passed.

I wonder we can fight a Tornado with a Vacuum Cleaner?

I sometimes have nightmares about them

I don't understand why people live in Tornado Alley.

@LordShadowfire probably decent prices real estate
@Nebula Oh, I'm sure. Any house where there's a chance you'll be swept up by a wind storm on steroids, flung about among various debris, and then thrown down on the ground in a different location with no guarantee that you'll live through the experience is going to be pretty cheap.

Yeah i got caught in one once. Picked my car up and drop it in a yard on road side. Was very scary
Nebula41-45, F
@Lilnonames holy crap, glad you are ok
