Best special effects EVER!!!!

Last night K and I watched the old "B" movie Twister. Just as the huge, evil F-5 tornado was barrelling down on our heroes, throwing around cars and cows like they were mere toys (mainly because they were mere toys), our neighborhood tornado sirens went off. For real.

Turns out our city now sounds the sirens when the National Weather Service issues even so much as a severe thunderstorm warning. It's no longer just for tornado warnings, so it turned out to be a big non-event. Some lightning, some rain, some wind....that was it.

Still, the timing almost made that old movie a "B+" movie. Almost.
