Anybody besides me find it strange that such violent tornadoes were in those areas? When I think F5 I think TX, OK, AR, KS, and such.
Note: please don't make this a global warming / climate change debate.

Yea, parts of Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa may be getting that same thing as the southeast just had.

Lowering the deductable on my car in advance. When the jet stream changes, the nasty stuff will move west.

Actually that area is known as "Dixie Alley" and has a long history of violent long track tornados. Back in the winter I saw a model that predicted the first EF4/EF5 tornado event would be there this year. It did not predict such an outbreak though. Still hard to comprehend what happened.

Joe Bastardi called this months ago. There is a significant cooling in the pacific that is causing a ramping up of these severe storms. I'm afraid it's going to be a long spring.
-
I heard something like 300 dead, but I havent heard much because everyone is covering this royal wedding BS instead of ACTUAL NEWS
Prayers for those in the path of these storms.

yeah we got smashed down here.
Government changing the weather! :O RUN! :bolt:

not really,these areas seem to get the extreme tornado's. I've been through 4 in SE Texas and all were EF1-EF2. We have an bellybutton load of them but there all small, those areas hit i relate with the big boys.

It was a perfect storm of sorts. The warm air coming up from the gulf, the cold front coming from the north, the low pressure system behind said front, and the jetstream right where they all met. That is the combination for something extremely terrible.

Interesting mental picture there.

There's always been a Dixie Tornado Belt. That's why many of us have below ground concrete storm shelters.
Total toll 3 storms is 10 people now (many more injured) here in Arkansas.
At least 2 were in "disaster magnets". (mobile homes)

hmmm i think Hitech doesn't like other words for rearend

F5's can happen anywhere. They are not "region specific". They rely solely on evolving Weather conditions. People get complacent thinking "it won't come here" and get blindsided.
300+ people too many. Our Country needs to step up the little things like Weather Warnings (i.e. Advance Notice), because most of these injuries and deaths could have been prevented. My heart goes out to those affected in game (AM2 and others), but also out of game.

I actually watched the F5 tornado that tore through Jarrell and took out most of the town with it back in 97. I remember being out towards a little town called Andice and watching it from a little hill.
-
last I heard it was 309 dead, 1800 injured, 1.3 million without power

None of this would be happening if we had signed the Kyoto agreement.

I fail to see humor in a death toll. But I am pretty sure if you were affected, you would be singing a different tune.
