Your post served a good reminder to me. My brother and his extended family live in FL. They are after me to move there after our mother passes and I don't have a reason to stay in the Denver area. Those storms are enough to keep me right here. We get cold and we get snow, but we rarely get a tornado anywhere near the city. There's safety in that!

We had a huge wind storm on 1/04. Hurricane force winds of over 100 mph. My daughter was scheduled to work and I told her to call them and tell them her dad would not allow her to drive in those conditions. They were pissed, but so what.

Of course, she then hopped in the car and drove out someplace to pick up her boyfriend and gave him a ride back to his house.

Doh.

It does make you wonder if she had left the building she was in if she would have been OK, or if she was safer where she was, even if the roof was torn off.... I certainly wouldn't want to be in either a tornado nor a hurricane....shiver!
