I saw some gnarly clouds Saturday and Sunday - kept an eye out for tornadoes but didn't see any.
Sigh - for all the years I lived in a tornado-prone area I never saw one. Now I have even less a chance.

I've only ever seen a couple. That's plenty enough. I could go the whole rest of my life without seeing or hearing another...

More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

Sometimes it rains and the wind blows and sometimes you get tornadoes.

Since they start at the beginning of the alphabet during hurricane season when assigning names, the last hurricane that I heard about was Hilary. It was a tropical storm by the time it got to LA, and dumped an astonishing 2" of rain during what is normally a bone dry month for us.
Somehow, they got all the way to "Lee"? I guess I missed those hurricanes beginning with I,J, and K!

OH, BTW ... if a hurricane is particularly destructive, they retire the name. There will never be another huricane named Katrina. Just mental lint.
