Yea, does Pennsylvania ever get hit by strong tornados like the ones that hit Florida the other day?

Not to scare you off, but I believe it was back in 1998 that Lake Carey, just north of Tunkhannock, was decimated by an F-3 tornado that claimed two lives and downed many of the trees surrounding the lake. This past November, an F-1 tornado blew through Mountain Top, near Wilkes-Barre, and tore the rooves off of homes, caused the windows of a supermarket to blow in and injure customers, and downed massive trees. While tornados aren't common around here; they do happen.
