We get a few tornado in the Central Valley of Calfornia from time to time. But they are wanna be tornados compared to what the Midwest experiences all the time. I don't even think that they even rate as an F1. If someone from the Midwest saw it they would think that it was a dustdevil or a whirlwinds.
We had hail in Atwater on Fri. that covered the ground. 3 yrs ago a tornado took out a barn in Merced.
The only damage from the one I just posted was a home a little south that lost its lanai and garage. Yeah, I don't miss tornado alley at all! (20 years in Michigan, another 13 between Oklahoma, Texas, Kentucky, and Indiana).
