Only tornado I ever experienced was from the lower level of a parking garage in Nashville in '98 (99?).
I knew I was safe but it was still a strange experience. It got very dark, my ears popped, and it sounded like a train was driving over our heads.
When I left the office people told me there were tornadoes around, but growing up in Ohio I thought there would be warning sirens going off if one was really close. Did not know Nashville did not have anything like that at the time. As I was walking down the street I heard a big roar and saw a massive black blob coming over the city. Ducked into a parking garage because I knew it would not blow away.
