what type? first evacuate and call the fire department. If there is a fire extinguisher directly in front of you, use it. If its in the other room, just get out. By the time you get back with it, the fire will be twice the size and even more dangerous.\n\nBut always evacuate first, and shut all doors behind you. (This slows the fire from entering into other rooms.) If this is an outdoor fire...ie brush..garbage..stay back or if it is smaller than a trash can...try to cover it with dirt or use water to put it out.

Found 10:\n1. Stay or go indoors! \n2. Stay away from anything that could conduct electricity.\n3. Don't use any plug-in electrical appliances like hair dryers, electric toothbrushes, \n4. Don't use the telephone during the storm. \n5. Stay in your automobile if you are traveling. \n6. Don't use metal objects outside, like fishing rods and golf clubs. \n7. Get out of the water. \n8. If you're outdoors, seek shelter from lightning! \n9. If you can't find shelter, avoid the tallest object in the area. \n10. When you feel the electrical charge, drop to the ground immediately!

My guess is that you die.  Tornados typically have winds up to 250 mph and throw debris for hundreds of yards.  Being within the 50 feet or so to fire a shotgun at it would be suicide.\n\nBut even if you did shoot the gun the tornado is such a powerful force that a gunshot would have no effect on it.  Now, maybe something like one of the fuel air weapons the military uses might have an effect.

'the wizard of oz' was a friendly tornado :) approved by every 9 year old on the planet.. \nseriously .. I would reassure him of how current forcasting abilities make tornados easy to prepare for and that shelters can withstand most direct hits from one. let him know that you have a plan in place for the event that one gets close and that sirens give lots of advanced warning.. make him feel safe and you, yourself should learn to detect warning signs for what to watch out for .. especially things like cloud formations.. and having emergency supplies ready at all times.. \nPersonally, I would not let this possibility keep me from making a move to somewhere like oklahoma or kansas or nebraska .. they are well prepared and have excellent capabilities for predictions and advanced warning systems.\nHe should be easily reassured when presented with the facts of the situation and the knowledge that he will be safe.. but expect the unexpected and prepare accordingly :)\nHave a good trip.. Best wishes :)

u should just getused to it. Iused to getscared when microbursts happened(i live in pheonix arizonaandthose happen a lot here) microbursts are like huge gusts of wind sweep over the ground andthey are very strong. What I did to getover it was just igror it. there is an infinite number of things that are worse than lightningand thunder. distract urslelf fromitby playing video games or watching tv or going on the computer.

I have. I took pictures of this one that came right by my house. This tornado was in Tennesse so it was big for us down here. Also a few years ago a twister came through part of my town and destroyed the school i was going to. Since my town is so small and my school is so small we had class in our courthouse.

What kind of storm? A tornado of sufficient force can certainly blow you away - heck, powerful tornados can even pick up entire trucks. A hurricane might not quite pick you up and deposit you somewhere, but its strong winds can knock you off your feet, especially in the midst of all that rain and water from the storm surge.

I don't think my little tornado survival kit would cut this one !!!\n\nWhat would be the first thing I'd do ??\nFind a clean pair of pants !!!\nThen I would ask God if I should be thankful or \ntake this as a challenge --I wouldn't expect an answer--

You can use air compression if you can't find fireworks.  Rig something to blow its top and throw some top cover into the air.  Sound effects will add to it.  The container could contain smoke that you've trapped in it to release.

CALL 911...YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT IMMEDIATELY.

What may have happened was the funnel cloud you saw was either a downburst or a cold air funnel.\n\nHowever, in the case they aren't cold air funnels or downbursts and the NWS doesn't catch it in time and doesn't issue a tornado warning, it might be that their equippment didn't catch it in time or that no spotters saw it.  \n\nWeather spotters and weather radar isn't perfect.  So err on the side of caution when you see severe weather.  Even if it's a severe thunderstorm warning, head indoors and don't be chicken to head to the basement.

A NOAA (National Oceanic & Atmospheric Adminstration) radio will keep you up to date on Severe Weather in your area. They are available just about anywhere (Target, Best buy, Circuit city), and new ones will allow you to set what alerts you want to hear (If your only interested in Floods, tornado warnings whatever) and will also allow you to set what county you live in so it wont go off unless the weather situation will affect where you are.... or you can monitor everything if you prefer.
