This couple drove 6 hours to get engaged in front of a tornado

A weather loving duo took their passion for weather to an entirely new level when they got engaged in front of a tornado.  

The couple reportedly drove six hours to not only see their first ever tornado in person, but also take the next big step in their relationship. Raya Maday and Tom Bedard, who both work for AccuWeather, set out to Colorado in hopes of locating a twister on the ground. 

Maday thought they were just making the trip to chase storms, as she had no idea that Bedard brought an engagement ring along. When the couple finally saw a promising storm forming, Bedard was able to pop the question just after the tornado touched down. 

Getting engaged in front of a tornado may seem bizarre, but it resulted in some pretty epic engagement photos and video.
