I always thought there was a tornado season just like hurricane BUT....obviously not cause our W Ky got hit by many tornadoes in that storm right before Christmas. We get mostly straight line winds where I live but one night we were on tornado watch just after one of the foals was born on the TB farm right next to mine where I was working. We were caring for the foal & keeping an eye on the weather app for our area. Got home at 5am that morning & huge branches had broken out of the tree next to my driveway & across the fencing for my neighbors cows. A chair was blown all the way across my front deck along with other things I had just setting out there.

We don't get the amount of warning as with hurricanes & sometimes we get things picked up just as the storm starts hitting then fly inside & wait to see what damage it causes in the next 30+ minutes as the storm buldozes through.

We had my first HUGE hail, hail storm in my 15 years living here the other night. One hail stone was the size of the palm of my hand, most golf ball size.

Lol....we just got wind & blowing sand where I lived in Calif
