It's a tropical storm. I don't evacuate for anything less than category 3.

Tropical storms and hurricanes are for wussies. Around here, if it ain't at least an F4 tornado, we don't even look twice. 😛

chaotic42,
not many of those in bedford. however, i did encounter several tornadoes up there during the
first 23 years of my life. the thing that gets you with them is the lack of lead time.

I don't even wake up for anything less than a 7.0 earthquake.

Well, I'm from Biloxi, MS. In 1969 (before I was born), the town was decimated by Hurricane Camille. Everything there is super-hardened to heavy winds. That hurricane picked up a sunken ship from Mississippi Sound and deposited it on land. They made it a restaurant called Camille's. 🙂

No, we don't have weather here in Bedford. It's stormed maybe 6 times this year.

Yup, it was certainly bad. We had like two days of videos and speeches about it in Mississippi Studies class.
