When I was 6 or 7 years old, I watched a tornado form right before my eyes. Although I'm pretty sure the actual image of the tornado forming is distorted in my memory (It seemed like it was a mere ten feet in front of us), the details of the situation are still vivid. Everything went dark, terrifying me and my mother, as we were driving home in the storm. I can remember the clouds swirling around and all that.
I was so terrified but so young that my solution was to get out of the car and run, but fortunately, after my mom snapped out of her shock, we turned around in the middle of the road and drove in the opposite direction. Fast.
We went back to the mall, which had no electricity, and waited it out with a large group of people. As we drove home, I looked at all the damage (trees blown over is all I actually remember) and being the cute little girl that I was, I kept telling my mom how mean I thought the tornado was. ^_^
