At least with tornadoes - they come along with massive weather fronts that are easy to learn about over radio/TV, easy to see visually, and easy to drive perpendicular to and get away from in an RV.
It is CLEAR to me that you have absolutely NO IDEA what you are talking about.
Axle man: Absolute statements are almost always wrong- and be careful with the all caps.
P-nick lives in Oklahoma- you think he might know a little?
Tornadoes in OK TEND to be big and visible. Evidence is that traffic helicopter fiming this big one. His statement has a lot of truth- I would agree that he should have used the word "usually".
And they do form suddenly, can be hidden by rain, can occur at night, and to BREAK CAMP and drive away probably is a bad idea...but if you are on the interstate, listening to the radio, there is a valid argument to drive away- preferably perpendicular to the path.
"P-nick" location indicates Santa Cruz. I am unfamiliar with Santa Cruz, OK. I am however, familiar with Santa Cruz, CA.
I have no idea what he ~does~ know... But by his statements, I do know what he does not know.
