I've always wanted to see one under good circumstances...as in not being in one, but see it from a safe distance.

I saw one from about three miles away about 15 years ago. It hit out in the country, but took out a friend's house completely.

Safe to assume it didn't take out your friend?

Correct. She and her family were actually in town at her grandparents' place at the time, so they were all fine. They came home to nothing but a foundation, though.
I actually didn't know her at the time - just heard the stories when we became friends in high school. |

Gotta love the internet. It was apparently the same night as the Andover tornado:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andover...rnado_Outbreak W of Arkansas City to NW of Cambridge 25 miles 1 death - Tornado passed Arkansas City to the west, and then moved between the communities of Strother Field and Hackney. Many suburban homes were completely destroyed, and one woman was killed in her home. |

Well chances are the tornado is in your area if you don't have any power, thus not having to worry about the annoying Katie Horner.

that is what i don't get. tornadoes, ok. do coverage until they go away.
thunderstorms, 'damaging wind', flash flooding - put that thing on in the corner of the screen. do i need to see a rundown of minute by minute where a thunderstorm is or some news dork standing outside in a raincoat telling us it's raining? |

What is so ****ing amazing is some of you seem to have trouble understanding that storms in the Spring\Summer in Tornado Alley produce bad weather! That is until someone comes on the TV with 15 radars of the same ****ing thing and repeat themselves more than the Fox News Channel telling you torndaoes in Ks\Mo\Ok are very probable when it is Spring\Summer and it is cloudy and stormy looking in the sky.
Astounding even! Here's your sign.......http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=186014 |

But yeah, I'm content with the little radar in the corner unless there's an actual tornado warning. |
