Re: Our beloved Branson visitors
PLEASE LISTEN TO MICHAELS' WARNING, HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT!!!!!
Weather fronts generally travel WEST to EAST. Coming there from the WEST, you travel WITH them, coming from the EAST, you travel AGAINST them & the weather can change, QUICKLY, WITHOUT a WARNING!!!! Bill Danger

A little known fact about lighting, it can travel 20 miles and get you! Thunderstorms in the midwest are to be taken seriously!

LIGHTNING struck Grandpas' old plow, in the middle of a field. It burned off the WOOD handles & must have STERILIZED the soil, in a LARGE CIRCLE. For MANY YEARS, weeds wouldn't even GROW there!

But yes - most phones will do the weather alert if there is severe storms in your path and heed their advice on what to do. Also if you don't know DO NOT seek shelter from a tornado in a culvert or overpass - bottom of an open ditch is safer. (safest is basement then next safest is smallest interior room with no windows) Yea our storms can pop up in 20 minutes sometimes and disappear just as quick. Calm before the storm is a real thing. Tornado weather is usually oddly bright, and VERY VERY still not a single leaf moves, sky can turn a greenish color. Also watch animals and listen for birds if you dont see a single critter or see dog/cat/bird/fish acting weird and no birds chirping seek shelter. Flash floods are a nasty thing around here as well. Drive extra cautious at night or not at all if you can help it during a flash flood warning/severe storms.

Have seen this even in Oregon, no tornado to go with it, but very strange!
