| 4/27/11 - Tuscaloosa Tornado | |
I hope it's been a great one for you!
Some random news, ABC news is reporting Osama Bin Laden is dead.Yes, he is.
Justice!
That's for the Admins and Site Designers to decide, but i really would like to see it too.That is true. It's up to them.
I don't think it's necessary. Otherwise, special banners will be expected after every "major" severe weather event causing casualties, and then people will start arguing over what's "major" enough to warrant a banner in the first place.But this is a horrific event. It goes beyond many tornado events of the past, even the "super outbreak" of 1974. It's a once in a thousand year event, considering the death toll. One was made for the earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
Guess who is on CNN today as their weatherperson.....Yeah, I saw Alexandra Steele on CNN this past Sunday.
It's unbelieveable that this breaks some of the records from the 1974 Super-outbreak, and the Palm Sunday outbreak of 1965 as well. This is the deadliest tornado outbreak in nearly 80 years.Well, there's another outbreak to go: The Tri-State tornado of 1925, which is the deadliest single tornado in U.S. history, with nearly 700 fatalities and about 100 other fatalities in other tornadoes that occurred on that same day.
The death toll from this horrific tornado outbreak is more than likely going to pass the Super Outbreak from April 3-4, 1974. A total of 315 people died in the Super Outbreak, and the fact we've just witnessed an outbreak that may be on par with the worst outbreak on record in many categories is mind-boggling.Well it now has. I read a tweet on twitter from Severe Studios that said the death toll has reached 318.
