The cold air comed down from the Rocky mountains and clash with the warm Gulf air coming from our South spawns these Tonados. The are video of the worse of these storms that the twiters we call them was almost 3 miles wide at the base. May 3, 1999 the F-5 went through Moore Oklahoma which is where they fo most of the wide nation reporting on weather, but this one had wind speed topping out at 380 MPH, the mist powerful winds on the earth. U have to check these videos of how powerful nature can be, I lmow U have plenty of suggestions, but it is crazy when U watch a video that your eyes are back and forth, not a bad thing, but U are definitely interested, when U are able to watch these, be warned. God Bless

The Walkers in Oklahoma have a shelter built into the middle of their house that is entered through their youngest son's closet. They just built him some shelves where he can actually hang his clothes.
There are lots of places where tornadoes regularly occur that have basements or cellars where people can shelter, but some areas cannot build basements for various reasons and have to build above ground shelters. In leu of that, people are instructed to go to a closet or bathroom in the middle of the house (no windows) and cover themselves with mattresses.
I think you should note that this is entitled strange weather. Tornadoes, hurricanes, thunderstorms and blizzards are not considered strange weather. There are times of the year and places where it is a matter of when, not if.

That's false. You need to think of all the settlers had to overcome in order to make this country what it is today. Even with today's advances in cooling and heating, life can sometimes be unpleasant due to excessive heat and cold. Forest and brush fires can be major destructive events in some areas of the country and hundreds and even thousands of homes are sometimes lost. If you live on the Atlantic or the Gulf of Mexico it's not a case of if you'll experience a hurricane, but when. Many areas here experience lots of powerful thunderstorms. I own some property in Michigan's Upper Peninsula near Lake Superior where annual snowfall is measured in feet instead of inches. Tornadoes are common in many areas and they have literally levelled entire towns. Extreme heat that can even be life threatening occurs in some areas on a yearly basis. We're having a big thunderstorm as I'm typing this comment. Weather is definitely a hot topic of conversation in the States.

It was still a strong rotating system & the wind actually cracked an 200 year old oak at the base. We have an above ground shelter (a shipping container w concrete floor & ceiling). All we can do is hope that the shelter holds up & follow our tornado plan. My husband will be the one to hold/shield our toddler. God forbid if the shelter doesn’t hold up or debris comes in, she has a better chance w him than me. I’m very small & my husband is a big guy (6.5’). I know my body wouldn’t be able to take as much damage/hits or I would be one of the first to get sucked out. (Debris is what usually kills you in a tornado) I know it’s a very morbid conversation, but we have to plan for the worse. Also, helmets. He wear helmets during them. We always look so stupid but if it helps, it helps 😂]]> For your question about people who lose homes bc of tornadoes, yes, people have house insurance. Not all tho unfortunately. But even if you have insurance it can take many months to get your home rebuilt. Insurance companies don’t make it easy for you bc they just don’t want to have to pay even if it’s covered. Same w health insurance for many. Are we used to tornadoes & bad storms? Yes. (Or at least for people in tornado prone areas. I live in Georgia aka Dixie alley) we have at least 1 or 2 a year. Depends on the year tho. Most of our storm damage each year is bc of straight line winds(which, believe or not, can be just as damaging as a small tornado) & lightning. My grandfather’s house next door has been hit by lightning twice in the last year 😂😂 We were in the path of an EF3 this January, but luckily it lifted right before it hit us.

Earth Quakes are common around the San Andreas fault, most in the area are waiting for what they call the ' Big One ' that will sink half of California.
-70 degrees Fahrenheit is -51 degrees Celsius, and +140 degrees Fahrenheit is 60.5 degrees Celsius

PEACE ✌️
