Tornado Warning in...California?

Unheard of. Tornadoes happen in Tornado Valley and the Midwest. Not the Pacific Coast, and definitely not in sunny California, right?

Wrong. Just this week, two tornado warnings have been issued in the Contra Costa County, on Wed. it was in the Santa Clara county. Today, it was for East Contra Costa County. What is going on?

Just a few days earlier, I found out that there was a tornado in Marin? (I think?). Californians, beware. It used to be earthquakes...but now, tornadoes are whirling that way too. Oh no! But it's so exciting! More from mangoiice!
