I know. That's the meme. The people on the West and East coasts are not used to having tornadoes. They are very rare. That is why they are so panicked even if the slightest of tornadoes come, they are alert.
PEOPLE ON THE WEST AND EAST COASTS:; "OMG! THERE IS A EF-1 IN THE AREA! JOHNNY, GO TO THE BASEMENT WITH EVERYTHING! EVERYONE RUN FOR YOUR FREAKIN LIVES!"
