Oh, I am a storm spotter here in Oklahoma BTW so I may be posting these from time to time as part of my duty.

I'm in southern Indiana right across the Ohio river from Louisville, KY. That EF 4 tornado that flattened Marysville, IN wasn't all that far from where I live.

I was an intern in Marysville last summer...

I've been driving through Marysville for years on Hwy 3 to get to Hardy Lake. Cute little town. I'll miss it.

Our farm was four miles outside of the town limits. I dashed out of work and called when I found out, and the tornado missed the farm. Thank God.

Well I am heading out near the TX/OK panhandle with my storm chasing team. Looks to be another active couple of days with a few tornadoes possible.

im so glad i dont live where tornadoes are common! i hope all of you who do are able to stay safe from them!

Sorry for bringing back an old topic but it could be a very dangerous night in the southern United States. I almost got ran over by a rain wrapped tornado while storm chasing today here in Arkansas. Please pay attention to the weather as these storms will be very nasty and hard to track as some of them will be blowing thru with lots of wind and rain at 60MPH, you will never know in advance if a tornado will be embedded inside!

If youre in texas you know its just another day, rain , shine, tornadoo volcanoes or the uprising of hell. Itll pass in oh say.....now...and now.....and now again!

You make it sound like some sort of disease putting outbreak in the title
