Yeesh. Hope you Texans are allright down there.

All the time I spent in Oklahoma and the only possible tornado I was ever in was in Tucson AZ in the early 70's.

No one ever confirmed it was a tornado, but when your Oklahoma born and raised mother takes one look at the sky and then shoves you and your brother into the bathtub, that tells you something.

That and the slump block house down the street with the front of it destroyed, or the piece of tin shed wrapped around a telephone pole out front that my older brother and Dad had to remove by each grabbing an end and walking around each other.

Fast forward to the late nineties when the local tourism bureau objects to the reporting of a couple of small tornadoes as though mid-westerners won't come winter here for fear of a rare F-0 or at the most F-2 tornado that only happen during the summer thunderstorms.
