When I was six or seven years old, a Cincinnati-area local news commercial in the early 90's had a major influence on my fear of tornadoes. It was a five-second ad for the weather team's new Doppler radar called 'Tim's Weather Breakthrough' (pun intended) which had an animated tornado rip through the screen and fly toward the viewer (sound effects and all), and leave behind a gaping black hole in the screen. I had to leave the room or be ready to shut my eyes and cover my ears whenever that station ran commercials in the evenings.
