About fifteen years ago I had a horrible nightmare about a pair of tornadoes that looked very much like those, in the nightmare they tore up the city where I lived and surrounding communities.

Northern Ill. and south, central Wisc. for several years and saw plenty from a distance and had a couple hop the town I was in, a sound that's probably impossible to forget. Saw a few out on the road in the "alley" a few times too, not a fun thing. I like excitement on occasion but that kind of cold-sweat-adrenaline rush isn't entertaining in the least... even in a bad dream.
