  • I have not. I know they have occurred here in the Central Valley, but I have not seen one.

    Yes. About a dozen. I live in tornado alley. They are mesmerizing to watch.

    Yesterday I saw one about two miles away on the highway toward the beach were I live. It scared the daylights out of me. The 28 years Ive lived in Savannah Ive never seen weather like this. Global weather change much? haha. Also, when I opened my back door to take a peek at the weather, I saw the funnel cloud then almost got struck by lightning. It struck about 100 feet from me in my driveway. I was blinded for about 60 seconds it was so bright. It was about as thick as a bathroom sink pipe and it split in two once it hit the cement. Scared the living daylights out of me. Next thing you know it will start to snow in July. ;O

    I saw the neighbor's garage explode and spin upwards. I guess I was too close to actually see the funnel cloud. It was a weak one since our nearby mobile home was not moved.

  • "Yes" ... many years ago in Central Texas.  The house I was staying in had a separate garage and the tornado removed it's roof while we watched from inside the house.
    I also outran in in Alabama while driving a big rig. It was about five miles away.
