Tornados are the scariest looking thing in the world. When I was little I just had to look at a picture of one to scare myself so bad I couldn't sleep. I think towns near the ocean are supposed to be much less likely to get hit by a tornado. My hometown (on the Texas coast) got hit a few months ago, but it wasn't anywhere near my neighborhood. We did lose a chunk of our fence though.

Can you imagine minding your own business and suddenly this is looming towards you?! Wanna know something extra scary?
They're not always visible.
