i grew up in tornado country
after Black Wednesday April 3rd 1974, nothing scares me
i respect them greatly, but i'm not terrified, like earthquakes they cant be predicted, but they can be avoided IF you stay miles in front of the Squall line that produces them
I also went thru ground zero of the Northridge Ca, earthquake
if in a campground seek shelter in the restrooms
if on the road keep your eyes open and the weather radio on
IF possible run away from the tornado 'PATH' at right angles
most will travel in a north east direction
that means travel south is best, or east as fast as safe
i've had tornado storm fronts behind me when traveling thru Oklahoma (i don't mean funnel in sight, but less than 20 miles behind me, right where i had been 30 minutes earlier)
foot on the pedal, kept going east, i even avoided my preferred NE route of travel and went east and south until the danger had past
seeking shelter is always the best choice
