    Yeah, I know that's the first thing I want to do if a tornado is coming. I also like to shelter myself on top of a water tower with a big piece of sheet metal during a lightning storm....

    It never fails to amaze me that you're still alive.

    Mobile homes are particularly vulnerable to overturning during strong winds and should be evacuated when strong winds or tornadoes are forecast. Damage can be minimized by securing trailers with cables anchored in concrete footing. Trailer parks should have community storm shelters. If there is no shelter nearby, leave the trailer park and take cover on low-protected ground.

    Well, if figure that if the lightning doesn't kill me, it will probably give me some sort of super power...

    I hope not! :eek:

    You're not supposed to do that. Of course, a sane person wouldn't live in a trailer where tornados are pretty common, but I digress. Hope you survived, Eddie!
