I hate tornado season. My house was almost hit last year, the tornado shifted towards a different part of the city and barely missed my house. I was elated that I didn't get hit by it, but still those who did get hit I felt sorry for.

That one touched down, the one nearer to me didn't touch down, a blast of cold air killed it.
