Hurricanes spawn tornadoes...

Indeed they do!

We were in Florida in 1979 for Hurricane David....only a minimal Cat1 but it stalled just off our coast for a couple or more days....and spawned tornadoes.

We stayed put in our home

....but the howling, incessant winds....the telephone wires snapping, the driving rain.....were really scary......

Water poured through the sides of our doors and and our front bay window....I'm only talking about a Cat1...and we moved mattresses to the inside hallway where I stayed with the baby as my husband mopped up the water...

..two blocks away a tornado ripped part of a roof off a large supermarket.

Category 1 is not harmless!
