My first tornado when I was living in Kansas for a spell distroyed a large chunk of oklahoma city in May 1999. I was caring for 3 children as a nanny -- the daytime nanny's house across town was totally demolished by a gigantic tree (with no basement to retreat to).
Being that I am from California, my disaster training is mainly for earthquakes and floods. Definately one of the scariest things I've ever experienced. Especially with a 11 year old walking me through preparing the house to be hit. Houses swallowed whole then spit out as a scattered mess blocks and sometimes miles down the way.
