[TheJackOfAllTradez1]

I live down in Will County, it always goes south in Grundy or Kankakee, and north in Kendall or Cook, we never get tornadoes here, well maybe 1 year in this county if we are lucky, I hate it. I'm moving to Oklahoma anyways so I can experience a bunch, I love tornadoes. Damn, I can't wait till early spring.
