The annual "tornado season" where I'm at USED to be really hit or miss, but in the past five years they've become incredibly intense. Places that tornadoes usually wouldn't hit are now getting hit pretty hard and causing all kinds of havoc.
I survived one at the beginning of 2020 after being sick with what I believe was Covid before it was a known thing. Neighbor's tree fell on the porch, room where my ex and I kept our dogs, and the guest room/adjacent bathroom. Had it not stopped at the bathroom, the tree would have hit the main bedroom and killed me.
Still get paranoid and anxious when storms hit. Anytime I hear sirens or get a warning popup on my phone, I almost breakdown into puddle of fear induced paralysis. Do not play with Mother Nature.
