There are 3 reasons in high school/college I would willingly get up before 8 on a day off:
It is race day
It is a ski day
"Honey, there's a tornado warning in Oregon." (Proceeds to run to the TV immediately without a second thought)
Birth of that family meme aside, I do plan on doing something for the 10th anniversary in October. Probably won't just focus on the tornadoes since it was sandwiched by what some were hyping up to be the next Columbus Day Storm, and did not notice the favorable setup in between the systems. The windstorms busted, and the severe outbreak was not forecasted until a MRGL was issued after the event started.

Well I know @SeattleSmokeLayerFan is hoping to really get the burning and smoke started. I remember last year at this time we were in MN for a wedding and there was already lots of smoke coming out of Canada across the eastern 2/3rds of the country.
