According to the National Center for Health Statistics, the leading causes of death in the US are, in this order, cancer, heart disease, stroke, chronic lower respiratory diseases, and "accidental injury," a broad category that includes a lot of stuff that just happens. You are more likely to commit suicide or fall to your death than be killed by a tsunami or any natural disaster, the odds say. Overall, global deaths from sudden natural disasters - things Nature dishes out over moments, hours or days - have been on the decline in recent years, with the exception of 2003 and 2004. Officials credit better warnings and swifter response to help victims.
Tornado (incl also in Natural Forces) 1-in-60,000 not sure about a mini tornado though.

They will chase you only if you want them to. That's if you are talking about those little whirlwinds or "dust devils" that travel down the street, stirring up dust and trash. First, you and it have to be traveling the same path. You know if you stand still, it will just pass through you and continue on its merry way. But be sure to shut your mouth and eyes before it hits!

There ARE small "tornadoes". We always called them "dust devils"...they wander through dirt lots and deserted parking lots in the desert. You can see them because of the sand they stir up. I've been in one or two, and see them all the time.

well, I am a bookmaker, and if you wanted to place a bet, Id lay you 10,000 to one. The odds are much greater than that, of course, but I couldn't take such a big liability on one single event.

Better a "mini" than its larger "evil counterpart"
