I guess the stor in 82 more or less traumatized her for years to come...I'd hate to not be able to sleep through the night because of a small storm...

I used to think earthquakes were fun till we had that big one (Loma Prieta)... All the destruction, deaths, that really got me. Isn’t the weather scary sometimes?

That night tornados were literally everywhere. One traveled straight up I30 from Fort Worth to Arlington. It was a train of severe storms all night. At one point there were 80 mph straightline winds carrying softball-size hail. I still like rain but after that night...I'll pass on the severe storms. In my life I have been in the vicinity of 4 different tornados. Not fun. So that is why I moved to Hurricane country... ::: sigh ::: I lived in Texas before moving to Orlando and I always loved storms until my first major one in Texas.

It flattened about half of Paris. I was mad because our school was untouched while directly across the street from it there was nothing left standing. I survived the 1982 Paris, Texas tornado!

I grew up in a trailer home out in the middle of freakin' no where in West Texas. I remember the house rocking when the wind would really kick up in a bad storm. Once I got out of those and into a "regular" house with a good, firm, solid foundation, those storms have never really bothered me again.
