You very much get a good sense of peoples attitude to a Tornado Warned storm, they all still carry on like its normal!
Anyway the frequent lightning in the vid is awesome.

yes, we saw that first hand....some guy drove to a service station in the middle of an intense storm to get ice from a dispenser...

re that clip above...there is not much wind around, so I guess people think not going to be a tornado?
also too there is a bit of a cry wolf with the sirens...
