The Lucky 12

[Jim Tang]

Just wondering...it seems that the number 12 has been lucky for chasers. May 12, 2004 (Attica/Anthony KS), June 12, 2004 (Mulvane/Rock KS), May 12, 2005 (South Plains TX), June 12, 2005 (Jayton TX) have all provided tornadofests and/or photogenic, large tornadoes. Which of these dates listed above was your favorite? Any opinions on this?

It's too bad I can't create a poll, but asking you straightforward would be fine.

Mother Nature has no calendar, so any such discussion is only good for SDS. Interesting point, but I was thinking the opposite last night as I was preparing my new website to be released upon the world. It seems a lot of my chases are in the 2nd half of the month. My only tornadoes came on the 20th. And let's not forget the Plains outbreaks on 5/22 and 5/24 of last year, nor the Midwest tornadoes on 5/27 and 5/30 of the same year.
