Why Living in Tornado Alley can be Exciting

[hotrod3157]

Since I live in Oklahoma springtime around here can be all kinds of fun. I got an email with some storm pics attached saying Springtime in Oklahoma. Thought I would share the pics on the email and then some of my personal pics from earlier this year. My pics are a little blurry, its kind of hard to take a clear picture with a not so good camera in the rain with the wind howling around you, lol. Also the last pic was to show the weather isnt always bad here in Okieville. Here you go.

Hmm I've seen some of those weather clouds around here. Those are some sweet pictures, I just hope no one was hurt during any of those storms.

[Fredrick2003]

Nice pictures.

I love storm pictures, its so beautiful but deadly, I am weired I know :(.

[hotrod3157]

I love storm pictures too. Im the idiot that is running out with the camera or to just look when I should be getting underground. In my pics no there wasnt anyone hurt. They never really did much besides look evil a tornado did touch down out of the darker pics but just went back up. Next spring I will have to get some more pics if anything exciting happens near me.

those are the most amazing weather picture I have ever seen. If I walked outside and it looked like that first pic, I would probably piss my pants, change them, load up my car and go 127mph in the opposite
direction. That sh!t looks like something out of war of the worlds!

Man those clouds look so scary! I have never seen a tornado, well once when I was a little kid but it was very far away.

Very good pictures!

Great pics! In the 33 years I've lived in Kansas, I only got caught in 1 tornado traveling from Wichita to KC.....pucker factor of 10+ as the storm roared up the interstate and I parked under the overpass and got up under the supports.

Some of those pics really show the energy of Momma Nature

You said it Toto. Mother Nature is beautiful to look at, but also very deadly!

Those pics are amazing.. I would give anything to see that live.. We get a few tornadoes around here, but I have yet to see one in person.. One hit less than 2 miles from my house on Jan 3, 2000.. Nobody was killed, but like 70 million in damages. It was completely surreal seeing what it left (or didn't leave) behind.. And it was only an F-3.

I would have pooped my pants had I seen this...

ME TOO! A big explosive one!

I'm with Dengood and Klumzy! That would be a scary sight to see. But it is a really cool looking picture when sitting in the comfort of your home in good weather.
