    haven't heard anything, but drive around the trailer parks and you are bound to see some. Tornados always target the trailers

        Yeah, I guess it just happened. They showed some damage just outside of downtown Tampa and were reporting the word was just coming in that a tornada was hitting right downtown.

        Crazy with downtown Tampa being that close to the water. Tornados are a bit more of an inland thing arnt they?

            Tornados happen all the time. Comes from the Noeasterly weather patterns.

            I am waiting until it comes and passes so I can go surfing ;-)

              we're still here and the funny thing is that there are no trailer parks in downtown Tampa so I don't know why one would hit here!

                hehe! I dont think tornados are exclusive to trailer parks. They do seem to be attracted to them though once they are up and rolling.

                There is a bunch of parks off Hillsbough and the freeway leading into Tampa is there not?

                  yes there are a bunch on the water and canals off Hillsborough towards Tampa RD and then a bunch up Sheldon Rd. I'm a Fl native and I swear tornadoes are just drawn like magnets to trailer parks!

                    Trailer parks have a lot of generated heat from the metal in the trailer's raising up,
                    so any extra energy in the air will start a twister.

                      Yes, but was there a tornado touchdown in downtown Tampa as reported?
