On Groundhog Day, 2007 there was a tornado that hit in The Villages and about a dozen homes were heavily damaged. No injuries that I know of except for some mighty shaken people.

People here in The Villages have Weather Radios (mine is a Midland) and you can also have emergency reverse on your telephone to notify you if there is a tornado warning or severe thunderstorm coming. This part of Florida is well known for lightning strikes.
