520 _a"With a tornado warning, most people in the Midwest head the other way or hunker down, as anyone who has seen 'The Wizard of Oz' knows. But growing ranks of aficionados now come barreling in, the vanguard of a booming mini-industry of storm chasers whose passion translates into tourism dollars gratefully harvested by small-town motels and restaurants.
