Tornadoes in Tennessee

We are currently under a tornado watch until 11 am this morning. Pretty scary stuff. We, in East Tennessee didn't get hit like our fellow Tennesseean's in the West and Middle part of the state. The destruction and loss of life is terrible. As interesting as I find tornadoes to be, I am reminded also of how deadly. It is scary when tornadoes happen at night, when it is dark, one can't "see" what is coming. I'm reminded once again that man is able to do many things, and maybe even predict what might occur, but we can do nothing but stand by and watch when nature's fury hits. As much as we'd like to believe we are in control....we are not.
