We had some allright thunderstorms in MA, but I lived briefly in the Midwest and—they have these thunderstorms that are still scary even when you are inside. It is bizarre.

i live in dallas, about 10 years ago there was a small tornado skipping up and down about 3 miles north of me (they typically move SW to NE). I got in the car to "chase" it and made it to the end of my street. It was so ominous looking I turned around and went back home.

Agreed! Grew up in Illinois. Live in CT now. Miss those summer thunderstorms in the midwest.
