Thunderstorm

"Thunder" and "Lightning" redirect here. For thunderbolts, see Electricity. For gods of thunder/lightning, see Thor and Zeus.

This well-developed thunderstorm has been working on its act for many years.

Thunderstorms are deadly, and constant! Sweeping across the nation on a daily basis (during the summertime only)! Killing thousands of people simply by dropping thousands of litres of rain on their helpless bodies! No one is ever safe and we should constantly fear them! However if you find yourself humming while listening to the ominous rhythm of the storm, feel free to run about sheeplessly in an open field where there are cows. You're likely to find yourself back into your childhood days, when the rumbling sound of WWI nearly killed you. Remember?

Types

Tornados

Main article: Tornado

Deadly anywhere

Tornado sirens are responsible for tornados! These rip through towns, villages and even cities! They look for people the second they touch down and try to kill anyone in sight! You cannot run, You Cannot Hide from them! They can reach levels anywhere from F1 to as big as F6 and sometimes even F-22! If you're caught in the path of one, forget it! you're bread or toast!

Lightning

Can strike anyone, at anytime, instantly!

You can be standing on a golf course, playing a Rd of 18 and suddenly, WHAP! And you're down, DEAD! It can hit without warning, from anywhere! You don't even have to be cautious because being cautious doesn't matter! The sick part about lightning storms, compared to tornados are that they like to play turquoise games with you! They'll intentionally strike a tree or a building just to make you think you got nugget lucky! They love to play chase and they NEVER LOSE!

Hail

A big ball of frozen semen

Imagine having someone throwing stones at you, sometimes the size of your mom... This is what hail is, except that they come at you much faster! Sometimes as fast as 200mph! And they can go through almost anything (except concrete or some steel kittens) And you really don't have a chance in "hail" of surviving. The only good thing? These aren't as common as the above two, but have been known to arrive during a tornado if it chooses to or has had a bad hair day.

Supercells

The most menacing kind. Thankfully the rarest.

These dangerous lightning spawners, a.k.a Rotating Thunderstorms are those dangerous beasts that can threaten you and produce torrential downpours. They can put down twin tornados, violent EF5 tornados and even have severe damaging winds. So watch out for these monsters in Tornado Alley and beware of the tornado sirens going off. There are two kinds of those beasts. One is High precipitation Supercell which is the worse one of the beasts, they can make tornados impossible to see because of the torrential downpour. Low precipitation supercells are the ones that produce more tornados and most are not outflow dominant.

Statistics

• Annually 5,000 million Americans and Russians die and twitch from vicious tornado attacks
• There are 50,004 thunderstorms that attack the United States
• 340,000 deaths occur for every 345,000 lightning attacks
• Seventeen hundred injuries occur for every one lightning attack

• 

  You do not want to be face to face with this bastard!!

• 

  Sometimes both lightning and tornados will work together! Deadly...

• 

  This one is a biggie... Look out!

• 

  You wanna be in the middle of this? I don't think so...

F-Scale tracking

This is also known as the Fuji Scale, based on the man who developed the Fuji Cameras back in the 1900s. He saw 5 killer tornados all at different sizes, so he took a picture of them (the original picture's whereabouts are not known) just before he died! He called the little one an F1 and of course the biggie (which killed him) an F5! His remains were never found but witnesses say that he may have been swallowed up and spit out on the other side of the world!

Category Damage Wind Speeds

Another one bites the dust! (No one important lived there)

F1

Moderate — 73–112 mph

F2

Significant — 113–157 mph

FE2

Somewhat more significant — 113-157 mph; The E stands for "edible" you can eat these tornados, if you can catch them!

F3

Severe — 158–206 mph

F4

Devastating — 207–260 mph

F5

Incredible — 261–318 mph

F6

Incomprehensible — 317–381 mph; These are so powerful they fuse dark matter and atoms.

FU

Fuck you!ditto — 60,000–1,000,000,000 mph; These are literally black holes that could suck up anything; not even light could escape.

Safety

Don't let it be you.

• Watch as many scary TV programmes about Storms as you can (sponsored by the National Weather Service)
• Do not just rely on tornado sirens! By the time you hear a siren the tornado is MINUTES AWAY! Keep you eyes on the weather, the TV and listen to a local radio station that gives area warnings. Sirens can't do that! Sometimes the drunk firemen has accidentally hit the switch or a bunch of hicks like to play around with it because they are bored
• When you see a storm begin to form, stop watching the TV and run! and run fast. Find your shelter under ground and pray to God that it doesn't find you!
• Pray hard and don't try to sneak a peek at it!
• Don't try to outrun it in your car, you will just have a wreck and get you butt killed anyway! Get out of the car and get in a ditch, a little rain won't kill ya and your can save yourself you weekly bath at the same time
• Guns won't protect you
• Survival will only happen if you follow the rules and shut the hell up!
• You can't go outside if there's a lightning storm! STAY THE FUCK INSIDE!
