The tornado pulled water out of the ground into underground shelters where people believed they were safe.
There needs to be evacuation routes with streets widened and dedicated to one way traffic in a moment's notice. The schools need evacuation vans parked immediately outside of exit doors.

The vortex is reconnecting with water vapor from the Equator. Water vapor is fuel.
The areas I would expect some kind of hurricane formation, the air masses are moving to fast.
It is noteworthy to realize this tornado was not shrouded in rain. It was autonomous and not connected to a tropical water vapor system. Yesterday the tornadoes were all shrouded with rain and the connection to the equatorial water vapor was intact at the time of the tornadoes. I believe this tornado was far more powerful than yesterday because the heat was concentrated in less water vapor driving the velocities higher.
There was far less oscillation with the vortex system today without a larger system to support the heat concentration.
This is the Climate Crisis. This is human induced global warming. There are new dynamics with vortexes. These are not necessarily the same dynamic of midlatitude cyclones from the decades past.
