<<<well, what about those people who ARE outside and are unable to watch TV or whatever?>>
There is so much noise accompanying those thundercells a person outside would have to be deaf,dum,and blind not to realize we got a problem . I peeked out last night but not for long as the clothesline was making sizziling noises.
<< Is it common to not have tornado sirens in north Texas? TIA>>
More common than not. We had only two deaths in that biggie at Ft Worth, and before that I read only
only one or two in the entire county preceeding that but can't verify it.
Tornados always somewhere else, 40 miles South, 40 miles North, 3 miles West(haha)
Sirens wouldn't help, gonna lose that roof anyway.
Best bet is find the solidest place in house and always know where to hide.In my case a closet in bdrm under staircase. Been in there 3 times in 5 years. Very cosy.
