Odd :/
The tornado sirens went off but it's only lightly raining where I live. Weird 
Even the local channels that inturrupt any thing to say there's a 30 MPH wind doesn't say anything about any tornados.
EDIT: I guess it was just a drill.

Spring where I live = WIND! Crazy wind... There hasn't ever been a tornado near my house (at least while I've lived here), but we get dust devils quite often.
Do spinning leaves count as dust devils? It was windy a couple years ago and there were lots of mini-tornadoes made up of leaves in the street one day.

A dust devil is a strong, well-formed, and relatively long-lived whirlwind, ranging from small (half a meter wide and a few meters tall) to large (more than 10 meters wide and more than 1000 meters tall). The primary vertical motion is upward.
