JoMo Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Oh man. Who knows what the building construction was like but seeing foundations and the reports of debris falling well out ahead suggest this was a higher end tornado. There's more on FB, but this does appear to be a higher end event. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.398144913536031.112145.368118029872053&type=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 This has just been amazing to watch again, this year. It seems to be happening all over again. I have friends in Western KY and Nashville and I warned them yesterday they were probably going to be in the zone of highest tornado potential and to take it seriously. I hate having the right hunches when it comes to stuff like this. This certainly has me worried for next week when we get our abnormally warm weather that looks like it may settle into this part of the midwest for a stretch. I have a feeling its going to be a bad year up here for tornadoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
