Laredo Tornado

At sea there's squalls
as pressure falls
It's not surprising
as warm air's rising

From the cloud
there's thunder, loud
Lightning flashes
More thunder crashes

Hail stone falls
Large icy balls
Precipitating
Winds rotating

Air spins quicker
More lightning flicker
A funnel forms
'neath thunder storms

Touches down
Destroys the town
of Laredo
Class 5 tornado
