Wow, so basically the difference between mass casualties and not was just the path it took. If that would have been a little further south through somewhere like Airdrie you probably could have seen 10-20 fatalities, easily.
Pine Lake was an example of one hitting a really bad area. A campground with nowhere for most to go. 12 dead, hundreds injured with a less powerful tornado than this one.
