If you guys think bad weather majically happens...watch some storm chaser shows...they have a very good idea of what days and when they (tornados) *are gonna happen...tornado watches and warnings are sent all the time. Seeing, feeling and smelling the air often gives at least 15 minutes to 1/2 hour before the squall line hits...the real storm is way behind it but that first gust can be just as strong.
