Ian as I have told you , I am sorry your having to see and go through this. It definitely hits close to home and I know what your going through. It is horrible seeing all the death and destruction. We didnt have much in the way of looters bc Natl guard was on the scene within hours of ours. If you need anything you have my info somewhere give me a shout.

True, there are lots of tornados that hit in the open areas where no one is. We have helicopter news crews that runs behind them and films and we see them live on TV. Big ones like the one in bama , and the one I was in the middle of in Moore, Ok are pretty uncommon. As I say that tho, I can remember a tornado taking the same path , knocking down the McDonalds and Church across the street from in 3 years in a row. That was quite odd. They are a ton of things that are still unknown about tornados but the technology here is getting so good that they are starting to be able to predict the likelihood of them weeks or months out. The one we had last year , they warned us for two weeks we were getting one , on this day , at this time of the day. It was spot on!
