I have never had the urge to chase storms. It is a great way to get a lot of hail damage on your car.

We had one tornado come down 1.5 miles south of us that was awesome to watch. The wall cloud was full of striations was huge. It made a little F2 that tore the roof off of a house and tore up some cars in the parking lot of a local amusement park. That was 18 years ago.

About 4 or 5 years ago there was one two miles north. It was wrapped in rain and we could not see it. The TV stations had their choppers right over our house showing that storm. It tore up some trees and power poles.

We did not even loose electricity on either one.

My grandparents came to Oklahoma in 1900 and not one of the four ever had tornado damage to a house and neither did their kids. It can sure happen, but it really is rare.
