Rough Tornado Season


The US weather patterns have been unfriendly lately. The tornado count so far this year is significantly above the maximum count for any year at 581, as of April 20th. Bruigville is located in Tornado Alley and we've already been in shelter once this year due to a tornado warning. We'll be in shelter again this year.

I've had a house destroyed around me by a tornado once in my life. It makes you understand how small we are and how powerful the planet is. And how our lives can disappear in the twinkle of an eye. Statistically one has a 6 in a million chance of being struck by a F4-F5 tornado in any 60 year period. I should be safe for the rest of my life.
