Talking Tornado...

About 3 AM I heard a tornado. Reminded me of this story. Don't tell anybody but, when we moved to the Keys we were in our RV. The TV did the loud beeping thing and on came a tornado warning and at that instant the electricity went off. A few seconds later I heard the "locomotive" sound I've been told you hear. In an RV I thought I was toast for about 5 minutes, shakin' like a leaf and the electric came back on and the "locomotive" was gone. It was then I realized a giant bus type motor home next store's diesel generator auto started when the power went out and was in fact the "locomotive". I felt like a little girl!

Not really. The women head for the basement and the men stand outside and watch them until last minute, before heading for the shelter. They are fascinating to watch. When they hit a power line, it looks like a fireworks show. When they're in the sky they're white. Once they hit the ground, they turn black and the debris flies. They're great entertainment unless they hit your own home!
