Tornados and hurricanes are not at all the same - in American English, anyway. Hurricanes are huge and do a lot more damage in general. A tornado might only touch down for a part of a block but that place where it touched down - completely flattened.
Indeed, the van was a rockin'. Mother Nature was a knockin'. I had no escape, but to sit and figure out my plan as the demon approached. The rain and wind had already taken over. It was my time to go full Lieutenant Dan and fight this beast fisticuffs.
The rain began swelling and folding sideways along with the trees around me. By this time, the tequila gold was kicking in. I was set on a course from which I could not return. It was black outside. 1am vibes were there's still business open, but not for the good people.
My recourse was alcohol. It sometimes leads me to the light. This night is a shining example of why good quality liquor should be readily available for anyone at any time, just like in Europe.
My fight with the demon beast was fast, furious, futile, and fleeting. I really thought it was gonna be worse than it was hahaha. It was seriously intense for about 1.5 minutes. But I had a blast building it up to be an epic battle. Lol. I had good belly laughs that night.

I was caught in a hurricane in Florida whilst in a minivan. I was worried, so I just got drunk and cranked these types of songs:
O Fortuna https://youtu.be/EJC-_j3SnXk?si=JLzKpQgkelGCQWDr
Ride of the Valkyries https://youtu.be/GGU1P6lBW6Q?si=UUuOFeEnZgobC6YY
It made the experience more entertaining than frightening.
