I think I'd click my ruby red slippers together really fast and get the heck out of there. That's wild! There's no place like home...

we get spouts around here all the time, they normaly never make land fall. I've been out and tried to run from one only to be heading for another, never got close enough to one to have any problems!

Brad,

OK, now you've piqued my curiosity - WHAT would happen if you were swept up by one of these? How do you evade them?

Obviously you can evade them because your email address does not contain the extension .emerald_city_oz. com :)
