timmy-twister

OK, this is a little funny to me and some people I know, because some of my co-workers used to call me Timmy. The NWS in Memphis started this program in 2005 as a tornado awareness campaign, similar to Smokey the Bear. https://www.srh.noaa.gov/meg/timmyTwister/index.php.

When I was a kid, we used to have Owlie Skywarn brochures for tornado safety…do any of you remember getting these brochures in school?
