Yep, but it was on the return leg of a cross-country trip and after 3,500 miles or so nothing fazed us.

The worst was the Texas Panhandle with a tornado cruising through the county above us in Oklahoma. Nothing like trying to put a tent up in 60mph winds. We also found that the campground was at the end of a SAC base runway and were woken up by a B-52 landing. I jammed out of the tent to take a photo, but all I could see was the landing gear through the viewfinder. The ground was shaking like jell-o.
