I live down in the middle of Tornado Valley, so you could say we get swings. I've only lived here for a little over a year, but we've had four twisters in the county since then, one of which took out several houses. I deal with them by hiding, way deep down in a bomb shelter. People tend to freak out about them down here because back in '89, an F4 dropped down right in the middle of the highway and turned a bunch of people into chum in their cars, and then took off straight for an elementary school. Even without those, we're pretty regularly getting 50+ mph winds. Makes for nice terrain though with all the huge weather globes all over the place.
On the temperature stuff, we're swingy, but not to horrible extremes. I think 110 F was the max last year and the min was around 0 F. Muggy, but not a swamp, as we're far enough inland near the mountains. Pretty mild compared to some of you folks. Just wind, lots and lots of wind.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
