2. I was smack in the middle of one of those

back in 2012. It was wild. Came on with almost no warning.

It was a Friday night, I remember because we were setting up for a cookout. The sky got funny and I could tell something was about to happen. Grabbed the table and carried it inside just about the time it started.

It was weird. I went out on my porch and watched it. It tore up all kinds of things. I could hear it, but it never actually got really bad at my house. A block in either direction got bad, but it was just a regular strong storm for me. Afterwords I started hearing about what it had done and seeing pictures. We out and drove around a little and saw some of the damages locally.
