The fact is we are all weather enthusiasts and part of that is the lure of damage. We didn't become excited by weather because of partly sunny skies with a temp of 80.
Nobody wants to see or hear about devastation and especially fatalities. Yet we all are captivated by the power of mother nature. It's ok to want to see the raw power of nature, but also bothered by the ensuing fatalities that can happen.
I feel like people, especially professionals in the community are afraid to admit to what I said above.
