A person never quite appreciates the weather so much as when they move to the country and undertake a profession that has them outside every day - through all sorts of weather conditions. A city or town dweller who has a job that typically places them inside will hunker down in a safe place when the tornado sirens go off. Or maybe they are the sort that steps outside or stands by a window to view the event until it becomes obvious, even to them, that it is time to seek shelter. But, once the event is over - and as long as there is not apparent injury to them or theirs - it is typically thrown into a pile of barely memorable experiences.
