Apparently somewhat the same thing as the santa ana winds. Charged 
particles, rain, debris, whatever, colliding with each other.

So if you are in the southern hemisphere, does it spin in a counterclockwise
direction? Funny... my wife grew up in tornado country and she never
mentioned that! grin

Yea it causes the noise on the screen to spin around in a clock wise
direction. Oh hear's another trick that you can try with the same TV.
Try putting it on the Weather channel or the local news.   ;-)

Actually I was referring to the static on the screen, but I believe you're
right about the direction of spin in the hemispheres. So what does the
static on the TV do during a tornado event?

You get more static, but actually, what they say they are seeing 
indicates that they are weakly receiving a carrier from somewhere, 
and the storm is interfering with it, either by noise, or by 
physically attenuating the signal.

Black screen is max signal in analog TV, and white is minimum signal.

Okay guys...  This has nothing to do with repeaters nor very good humor, 
so lets move on.

Remember that all 2600 + members get to see these kind of replies and it 
gets archived, so please use the 'space' wisely.

This type of stuff makes it difficult and time consuming to accurately 
search the archives when a subject has become Off Topic.

Thanks for your understanding,
