Oh yeah, looking out your window and seeing that will raise your pucker factor by a factor of 10.

That one was massive, but it didn't look violently powerful. Noting how it breezed across those power poles, and didn't uproot them, or snap them. Must've been a big ol' F-1. (EF-1)

Which would still scare the **** out of anyone seeing it.

Agreed.

I love to watch tornadoes. I think they're extremely interesting. It's the science of the storm, and how it's formed that has had my attention since the 5th grade.

Agreed. (again)

I say that everytime I see a thunderstorm building in the distance. The raw power that is involved when 2 air masses meet is amazing. That alone has my attention.

Mother Nature rox.

I have the local radar pulled up every time I'm online. Maybe I missed my calling too.

Yeah, that's like seeing a guy who is so ripped his muscles have muscles. Then you spot him in the gym, bench pressing 140 lbs, struggling.
