Reply to comment by MajesticOuting in Tornado hits western Mississippi as storms knock out power for thousands. A town is 'gone,' resident says | CNN by A179E49GFZ68722R23

My hometown in SE Louisiana has gotten hit by a few, albeit smaller, tornadoes whereas before it was a rare occurrence. I've noticed that there tends to be more waterspouts over Lake Pontchartrain now and even NOLA has been hit by several.

NOLA resident here; I used to only get a tornado warning on my phone once a year (if that) and now it seems like every time rain rolls in, it comes with a tornado watch.

Yep. I used to LOVE storms. Now they scare they fuck out of me because every single storm that isn't a light daylight drizzle is a tornado threat. WTF?
