I lived in northern Minnesota for 3 years. The flat land that makes these storms look horrifying.
However, they're just storms. Only one town was destroyed by a tornado in the time I lived there. Well the population was like, 30, it was hardly a town. |

I grew up in Rapid City, South Dakota, and I can tell you that the weather there is amazing. I grew up in a house on a hill that overlooked the city. We had a huge picture window that faced east, so we could watch incredible storms followed by the most amazing rainbows. I've seen more double rainbows than I can count.
Rapid City, SD holds not one, but TWO temperature records. In 1911 it had the fastest temperature drop on record, 47 °F (26 °C) in 5 minutes. And in 1943 it had the fastest temperature rise, 49 °F (27 °C) in 2 minutes.
Having to sit down in the basement to sit out a few tornado warnings (which are actually pretty boring) is a pretty minor trade off for that. |

While we didn't have the "mothership" formation, when Hurricane Charley was heading our way, it was a very ominous looking wall of dark clouds that made us know we were in for a doozy. Weather is so cool!

Manitoba's Monster Tornado It's in the links at the end.
Easily the strongest tornado in Manitoba's history, probably all of Canada's. Less than 50km (30 miles) from my city! |
