I've been through a couple of cyclones up north. Worst was a cat 3 and that was pretty full on. You can't explain how eerie the eye is when it goes over and the RAIN. We are lucky we have the building standards we do in Aus and the lower population density. I don't remember tornadoes though. I wonder if that's a gulf of Mexico thing.
