[QUOTE="daytomann, post: 2208021, member: 10301"] I'll never stick around and wait out a tornado. Not a chance....Not without a shelter at house anyway. With the kind of advanced warnings we have now, we are packed and ready to go. We just make an evening out of it. If you leave early, listen to the broadcasts and are smart about it, you're normally gonna be fine. We ran into a little drama this time because the storms moved in an odd direction, but we were already so far ahead of it all that we could continue to stay ahead.. We did get to see some of the crazyness. I'll admit though, it seems the masses running from a bad situation is an exercise in Darwinism IMO, Most people leave way to late and then stay on main roads, quickly jamming them up and getting themselves nowhere fast. That's good for us because that kept the back roads free for us and a few other people who had smooth sailing south. To each their own I guess. I'm getting a fraidy hole before next tornado season so I'll never have to risk finding myself stuck out in that situation again. Oh and my wife and I have The Weather Channel app which is pretty cool. It shows a live radar and has GPS tracking and shows streets. It shows you as a blue dot on the map so you can see where you are in relation to the storms. As long as your cell service is good, it's an awesome tool. [/QUOTE]
