I'd like to see a Tornado... and possibly a hurricane.

We're not blessed enough to get them over here that often. And when they do appear, they usually hit Birmingham, and I'm not in Birmingham.

I might get to see one tonight!

The clouds are looking really bad. I hope we at least get a good severe tstorm out of it.

storms always put me asleep I just love the song of thunder. Im not sure is going to sleep in the middle of a really bad storm is a good thing though but what the hell at least I get a good nights rest even if i dont get up EVER!

the UK gets more tornadoes per square mile than any other place in the world. It's because there's tons of areas in the U.S. that barely ever get twisters ...if you averaged just the midwest the UK would be beat 3 times over probably, but yea. You guys should have a few :).

My parents are going to buy a storm shelter after this last near miss last November. The chances of it being that close again are low but yea ...just to be safe :D.

I used to live in central Colorado, near Pikes Peak. Tornadoes were unheard of when you were within an hour's drive to the mountains. But up here, there was one about a mile from my house last summer.

Lenny 2006-05-28 05:07 AM

D'you get a lot of Thunderstorms up there then? If not, then you probably get a lot of rain.

It's also because we're so tiny --> approx. 245,000km2 - a bit smaller than Wyoming.

Chuck Norris starts an F5 tornado when he exhales.

HandOfHeaven 2006-05-28 11:28 AM

Yeah, we get a lot of severe thunderstorms here in southern Minnesota.

Blessed?! i'd like to see how "blessed" you think you are when you get sucked up in one. you must be nuts..... and no i already realized this a looong time ago...

Lenny 2006-06-05 04:25 AM

I'd still like to see one. :p It must be a pretty spectacular site - seeing a Tornado or a Hurricane bearing down on some tiny little village. Even more so to see a strong city being ripped to shreads by wind.

sciencekid 2006-06-07 05:23 PM

ok fine, fair enough you'd like to see one.. not be in one.. ok then

Lenny 2006-06-08 02:12 PM

You never know. If I'm safe below ground... it'd definitely be one hell of an experience.

Sovereign 2006-06-08 03:00 PM

Yeah an underground bunker with a 2 foot thick Lexan roof so you can see it all.

O_O charge people 10,000 each.

Lenny 2006-06-08 03:08 PM

That's actually a pretty good idea... but you'd need somewhere where there are a LOT of Tornadoes and/or hurricanes. If those only the odd one or two, you ain't getting any money.

Talking about Storms - The Great Red Spot on Jupiter has got a smaller sibling... and they're on a crash course in a bit - first of all it's a chance to see how the Great Red Spot formed, and second of all, the fireworks! Well not literally, but, yeah.

goto page 11 and look at the bottom right hand. Tons of pictures on there of all the damage.

Look at page 13 too. The tornado takes up like the whole horizon, lol.
