Good job overall but you only commented on one day instead of three.
If I was in the storm I would be terrified, not only for myself, but for those around me. I'd be so distraught wondering how bad the damage was outside. After seeing I the damage I would feel horrible, but try to help as best I could.
I would be scared and not knowing what to do. Also I would be thinking about my family and friends making sure they are all okay. I would be sad that our town was destroyed and try to do as much as possible to help rebuild it.
Personally, I hate any time of storm... If I were going through a storm like this, I would be so scared and ultimately, a complete mess. I would do my best to help others around me. I would stay as close to my family as possible and pray. After seeing the damage after the storm, I would defiantly help out. This is so sad and I hope everything turns out okay.
I would be very scared because I would be very worried about my house and vehicle(s). Well since it was 15 mile wide storm, everyone I knew in that area would have damage for their homes and vehicle(s). I would probably check to see if everyone is ok.
If I was in this storm I would be very worried/scared and I would try to do my best to get in a safe area. I would also be sad just thinking of all those family's homes are ruin and hoping that everyone is ok. After the storm I would be very devastated by see all the damage. I would hope that the community would work together and clean up the mess.
I would be terrified since I live in a place where there is like a 0% chance of tornadoes. I get scared even of the slower winds just because I'm not used to that at all. I would want to volunteer to help clean and rebuild, if I had the chance. It's a terrible thing, but it happens regularly. I would make sure that everyone I know is safe and secure.
I would be very sacred because I wouldn't know what to do. I be sad and make sure my family and friends are safe.
I would feel terrified and nervous that the tornado would ruin my house or even worse, hurt me in some way. I would also be very worried about my family and friends and I would want them to be safe and protected. After seeing the damage done, I would feel devastated. I would also try my best to help clean up the mess made.
Making sure you, family, and friends are okay and nothing happened is very important. As well as making sure the homes are safe and not ruined. It would be a tough thing to experience but the best thing to do is hope everyone is okay and not hurt.
