I'm from the Chicago area and we probably get 10-15 tornado watches each year. I realize everybody is nervous because of the 2007 tornado, and tornados are certainly dangerous, but as an earlier member commented, the last tornado in the area was in the 50's. Quite honestly, with Florida being the lightning capital, that seems like a bigger concern. But ya know what? I just can't live in fear that something might happen when the chances are so remote. I've had a good life and I'm here in paradise. Life is good!
