Oklahoma

Quote of the day from meteorologist Josh Johnson:

Tornadoes in Spring aren't extreme. Oklahoma and Kansas just had a big tornado outbreak. In April. The national media calls it "cataclysmic, weird, extreme"....meteorologists call it "Spring."
(and he has other instructions for those who don't know anything about weather in flyover country)

of course, as the joke says: you can always identify an Okie because he goes outside to watch for the funnel cloud.

Why? No, not to photograph it but because you have to figure out if the tornado is near enough to go to the shelter...if you didn't do this, you'd be spending half your time in the tornado shelter.
