QUOTES:
"According to weather service statistics, Washington averages 1.8 tornadoes
a year, but Thursday's were the fourth and fifth to touch down in the state
in the past four weeks.

A tornado was reported May 21 in Spokane during a storm that also brought
lightning, hail and heavy rain, another was reported in East Wenatchee on
May 19 and one was reported April 27 near Sumas.

TENINO, Wash. -- Two small tornados touched down in southwest Washington,
damaging barns near Tenino and La Center but causing no injuries.

The twisters Thursday afternoon apparently were spawned by a 10-square-mile
storm cell embedded in an intense cold front that brought heavy rain to
much of the western part of the state, the National Weather Service said.

Jeff Rood, a meteorologist with the weather service in Seattle, said the
tornado near Tenino struck around 3 p.m., covering about a quarter-mile
along the ground in a minute or two."
