Yeah... but what happens when a tornado finds 15,000 feet of cable suspended in the air, Keith? would all that cable such the life out of the tornado or will the tornado take the cable and move across the countryside swinging the cable like a monster string trimmer? :) Anyway as another pointed out hurricanes and tornadoes events are so brief and unpredictable to seriously consider them as a power source. Kinda fun to consider the consider the possibilities, though.
