there was only a funnel cloud spawned by this thunderstorm. it's so rare for a tornado warning to be issued in California.

I remember back on February 19, 1980, when I was living in Madera,

a severe thunderstorm rumbled through the area and reports

of a tornado on the ground, damaging the Fresno Air Terminal.

Tornado warnings were posted in Merced, Madera, and Fresno counties.

Souvenir pictures of the F-2 twister were available,

would have favorited this video if it didnt include a stupid live audience show like RACHIEL RAY!!!

anyway...california twisters are both rare and not so rare. rare in the sense of northern and central california (like fresno). not so rare in the southern half of the state..however they are not common or occasional in southern california either. there are more dust devils in california than tornadoes.
