Yep. This past May, actually. Thirteen tornadoes in the space of two hours. One touched down less than a quarter of a mile from my house and I watched the funnel cloud form. In fact, I think I have some pictures of it floating around online. It looks like the fist of an angry god A few years before that, a tornado tore the storefront right off the building I was working in at the time - while I was still in it. D:

And then in college a couple of years before that, I was out getting some dinner during finals week and as my friend and I stepped outside, the sirens went off. I looked across the nearby lake and across the highway that divides it, there was a waterspout. Yes, a tornado made out of water. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.

I live in north Texas, we are quite prone to tornadoes! They happen regularly every spring and I've had several close calls with them over the years.
