We are lucky here I must admit
I live in Georgia and my daughter lives in Tuscaloosa, Al. Tornadoes (twisters) scare the h out of me. She's a third grade teacher and her school was destroyed in the April 27th tornado. I was a wreck watching it stream on the local Birmingham TV station. I'm not sure which is worse; a tornado or hurricane. At least they can predict where the hurricane is going days ahead of time, unlike a tornado. We've had close calls nearby but have been fortunate. The same storm line from April 27th came close and even dropped house insulation in my yard, but lifted before it got to us. Like I said they scare me a lot.
