    From Daryl Stout@1:19/33 to ROGER NELSON on Thu Aug 3 09:28:00 2017
    Roger,

    I couldn't take the cold. I was playing golf as a member of a club many yea RN>ago when out of nowhere, the temperature dropped to near freezing and it RN>started hailing on us. Luckily we had just finished the 8th hole, so after
    9th I left. They probably finished the round. When something like that
    happens, I start looking around for tornadoes.

    First, you are correct about the hail and tornadoes. If you are in an
    area of hail, especially large, you're in or near when a tornado may
    develop.

    Second, I *PREFER* the cold. While it makes the arthritis hurt more,
    it means NO HEAT ILLNESS, NO INSECTS (especially the stinging ones), and
    NO TORNADOES.

    I am TERRIFIED of severe weather...but after all, having been under 2 tornadic funnel clouds, within a mile of 2 rain wrapped tornadoes (an
    F-1 and an F-4), a 2 time lightning strike survivor (indirect, but I
    still got the severe shock), and nearly drowning in swirling
    floodwaters, can you blame me??

    Daryl
