I had an F3 come up behind my house/community, jump over it, and touch down on the other side. Took out all the trees in it path, and when it bounced over us, it pulled our roof off while we were in the house. Wasnt fun.

More recently, one that didnt touch down (pics)....

awhile ago i was coming home from minnesota, and a storm had hit there, but it kept going east, so i was basically following it home. well i get to detroit and 94 is flooded out and i have to get off the freeway. it's 11 at night. a tornado had just hit not too long ago. well i had to get off on livernois which is right in the middle of detroit in an unsavory neighborhood. well all the electricity was out so i'm driving down a dark street with looters running down the road with loot. it was like new orleans after katrina.

I have been in several since i live in NE Oklahoma. Very scary at night when you have no idea where they are.

u pwn me.

i was on vacation though, at my grandparents house. it was actually kinda cool, we went crawfish hunting as soon as it was over. we were without power though for an entire week. and in south texas with 90%+ humidity and temperatures 90+ everyday,it wasnt fun.

Katrina was an isolated incident.

did you get a look at florida a few years ago? lots of destruction there.

Property can usually be replaced.

Tornados are less destructive of property, but they tend to tear lives apart, literally.

With most hurricanes, you have weeks to prepare and get out of the area. With your average tornado, you have less then 30 seconds.
