How very odd... especially the part about people listening to the lecture about tornadoes. What strikes me about my dream is that the people in the house were more interested in watching the satellite image of the tornadoes on the television than they were of seeing the real thing outside. I have given some thought to that aspect of the dream and wonder if I may have been contemplating how people seem to depend on television, and more particularly "the news", to help them make sense of the world.... to the point of not really relating to the "real things" that exist in the outside world...

The rest of the tornado dream has recurred in various forms throughout most of my life.... along with the crazy staircases and the raging bull. The bull dream is interesting because of the mazes... very much along the lines of the Minotaur in the Labyrinth... only I started having those dreams long before I knew of the myth.

No, I believe the college tornado dream and farmhouse tornade dream are entirely different dreams. The tornadoes in the two dreams are the same tornadoes, of course. They symbolize -- well -- never mind -- but you know the classic Freudian meaning of tornadoes. Long, sinuous, twisting tubes viciously twitching back and forth and ... well that's enough of that. The farmhouse tornado attacks the locked, heavy wooden vegetable cellar door. It pulls -- almost sucks -- at the door (low pressure) seeking a vegetable to emerge (wrong thread). The college tornadoes, however, are vortices, left over from an obsolete Descartes physics lecture. Cogito ergo sum. I think, there for I yam. The yam is what the vortex is seeking. The only connection between these two dreams is that there are vegetables involved. There is a third possibility. Could this all be taking place in Kansas? Is it Auntie Em seeking the lost children. Have the children been blown (n.b.) "over the rainbow?" Or was it a little girl and a dog!
