* There is no way in real life that a tornado would ''roar'', though witnesses have heard some crazy-scary sounds from them in real life.
** They don't roar like animals, no (and animal noises were mostly used in the movie). But the big, violent ones DO roar - they make an overwhelming sound that can be heard miles away, and that sound, even over a little [=YouTube=] window, is not one you will ever forget. The little ones often sound like wind rushing through a wind tunnel.
