Complete and utter devastation. If was an EF5. Had to be.

Look at this. A single piece of furniture stands.

Tornado tally raised to at least 16 (click here)




No more shallow basements or crawl spaces as in the picture to the right. Dry full basements. These crawl spaces are not current housing code. Seriously. We have witnessed a devastating year for tornadoes. This isn't going to stop soon, especially tornadoes. Even if surface water vapor has dried up and hurricanes don't form anymore, there will be tornadoes. Cities and states have to realize the way they think about infrastructure designed to protect lives is a priority. These episodes are becoming more frequent and not less.
