I've been iknown to drive hurriedly to the place where a tornado has been reported. Never got to see one on purpose, but it is the kind of thing I'd love to do.

Great picture!
I opened the post with trepidation, wondering if perhaps it referred to chubby-chasers.... |

Awesome! The sound of wailing sirens still sends a chill through me. Down here, no one understands why.
As for chasing, that isn't an option since I live where I do, now. The damage path on the storms I see tends to be wide enough that the only option is for the storm to chase you! |

Thanks to all for the warm and enthusiastic welcome - much appreciated.
Heh - in the photo above, you are actually looking at less than half of the tornado. This is the most dramatic I have ever seen. I wish I could say it was mine, but alas, it is not. I'm a couch chaser now - too old to run like hell anymore. ![]() If you liked this pic, here is another that should make you pucker - as dramatic a wall cloud as has ever been seen (by me anyway), |
