Dodging Tornadoes
Honey, the tornado sirens are going off again!
Do you live in an area prone to Tornadoes? I do! I live right in the path of many twisters every single year. Starting from around late March until the end of May or early June, tornadoes and strong violent storms pop up most evenings. Storms with wind, hail, and often tornado warnings become a daily event.
Arkansas – This Way To Tornado Alley
Arkansas is right in the heart of Tornado Alley. Warm air blowing up from Texas collides with cool air being pushed down from the North, and creates complete havoc in Arkansas during the Spring, and often well into Summer too.
At this time, I have yet to witness a tornado with my own eyes. I have seen the destruction they leave behind. I have been as close as 1 mile as a tornado destroyed a barn near by and took out many tress. I think that was close enough for me. Yet, I remain fascinated with these often occurring weather events. I suppose some have Hurricanes, some have Earthquakes, some people even have to deal with Volcanoes. Me? I just dodge Tornadoes eachSpring and hope for the best!
Dang, there go those loud tornado sirens again…….

Tornadoes are actually beautiful and fascinating but deadly! Used to live in tornado country in Iowa. During tornado season we would sleep with our shoes by the bed just in case!
Poor Iowa got hit hard by tornadoes in 2011. I just sit and wonder what we are in store for next year in 2012. If the storms pick up even worse next year…. well I don’t even want to think about that! I am just gonna watch another Storm Chasers show, those guys have an exciting job I think.
