Twirling Through the City of Angels
Now, before you start envisioning Dorothy Gale clutching Toto, running through a Hollywood boulevard of flying movie posters, let's get one thing straight: these aren't the Kansas-sized behemoths you see in the movies. We're talking about more of a "whirlwind Wednesday" kind of situation.
QuickTip: Go back if you lost the thread.
That said, even a small tornado can cause some serious damage. Imagine a world where your perfectly curated Instagram feed is interrupted by a flying pool floatie. Or worse, your designer sunglasses end up in the Pacific. Not exactly the glamorous lifestyle we're used to.

When the Wind Blows
While tornadoes aren’t exactly a daily occurrence in LA, they do happen. And when they do, it's like Mother Nature decided to throw a surprise party – without inviting anyone. It's a pretty rare event, but hey, stranger things have happened. Maybe aliens are behind it all? Who knows?
QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.

QuickTip: Read line by line if it’s complex.
