[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3629780, member: 45785"] I've lived in both, too. There is a difference. A big one! A hurricane can spawn dozens to hundreds of tornados. I was in Biloxi, MS. when Hurricane Elena came through, and in Sumter, SC (about 100 miles inland!) when Hurricane Hugo came through. The entire state of South Carolina was pretty well trashed. I was here in the OKC Metro when the May 3rd 1999 tornado tore through Moore, and on up through Del City & Midwest City. The path for that tornado was about 1 mile wide, and it was exceptionally long for a tornado. Hugo was wide enough to blanket much of SC, and it carried on quite a ways farther than even the May 3rd 99 tornado. You can dodge a single tornado, if you're lucky, good luck with that on a hurricane unless you leave days before it arrives. Bill [/QUOTE]
