2. Well, I know MD usually gets an average of 2 tornados per year...
but the last few years it's been 5 or 6, and the year we got the F5 (some now say it was no more than F4) in LaPlata, we had 14 tornados.

But no, no global warming. Move along, there's nothing to see here.

15. We've gotten them in the past two years..
.. and I was witness to one in Northern VA last year. this year there hasn't been any. Matter of fact, where I used to live (Centreville, VA. Ffx County) two hit the same area where my street was in so many years.

8. I'm in NC one county removed from the watch area.
Right now (at 7:35p.m. on November 29) it's 70 degrees outside. That sounds about right - NOT!

Here's hoping everyone in the watch area stays safe tonight!

12. Yesterday, here in Kentucky
we had wind gusts of at least 50 MpH. Some gusts made it soound like the roof was gonna fly off. Thank goodness it was warmish and the rain held off until the wind had passed. I figured we might get a tornado if certain conditions occurred.

14. So, how'd everyone do?
The worst of it broke up before it reached Baltimore and we got nothing more than rain. But watching the weather channel it looked like some of you guys north and south of me could've gotten hit.
