Not really, because I thought that was just a joke or an over exaggeration of the weather at the time.

There's no such thing as a "tornado prepped" building. If a twister hits your house (or any building), it won't be there in a few seconds. Tornados destroy everything in their path without prejudice to building code. Having lived with hurricanes and tornados every year for 20+ years, I can tell you that they're nothing to joke about or play with.

What I should've elaborated on, Is that houses here in Southern California should have underground bunkers in case a tornado struck...Alot of houses here used to have bunkers back in the day in case of a Soviet nuclear missle attack during the cold war, But many newer houses don't have them anymore. LAME!!!

Apparently the tornado touched down right by Google off Jamboree. Conexant had a window broken as well as a couple cars shifted about yesterday. I'm glad I didn't go to the bank yesterday on my way home from Tommys...
