In my case it’s better not knowing about tornadoes. I have been afraid of them my whole life...since my uncle would yell tornado every time a cloud came over my grandparents’ ranch when I was visiting. He was the sweetest man...normally, but he loved to get me wound up, and it was soooo easy. LOL!
A tornado isn’t something I want to be surprised by.
I was never afraid of storms. Loved them even as a little kid. Mom was terrified of them and at the first rumble of thunder, she dragged my brother and me into the hall and closed the doors. I hated it because I couldn’t see what was going on.
Hubby was afraid of thunderstorms only because he’d been struck by lightning. Kinda can’t blame him. He did NOT like it when I went outside with the camera when storms were close by. LOL
