The Last 30 Days of UnPredictable Deadly Weather in the South
A Tornado Rips Through Missouri Leaving Nothing More Than Memories
While the south is well underway in their clean up and rebuilding efforts of the areas that were mostly widely affected by the cluster of Tornado's that ripped through Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia on April 27th, the south is enduring and preparing for more bad weather.
Just yesterday out of nowhere and within minutes micro-bursts and hail rained down on the quiet little town of Liberty, Tennessee. Liberty was lucky with just isolated micro-bursts. Joplin, Missouri is devastated today with 116 reported dead and hundreds injured by a tornado that hit them Sunday evening.
Alabama is still recovering from last month's tornados and it has a long road back from the severe destruction the tornados caused there. At the current count there are 297 dead from last months tornados. Tuscaloosa has been leveled by a massive, mile wide tornado.
Last month's string of tornados rushed through Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina and Kentucky. The area around the interstate in Ringgold, GA will never look the same. Last months tornados stuck there killing four and destroying fast food eateries along the interstate and flipping tractor-trailers in it's path.
These types of sudden storms are frightening and scary. Even with ample warning and getting to a safe place to ride out the storm there is really nothing you can do but wait helpless until it passes.
More reports are currently coming in reporting the numbers for death and destruction in yesterday's horrendous attacks by Mother Nature on Missouri. Unfortunately, more bad weather is developing across the region and is being watched closely by the meteorologist teams in the U.S. People are being told to keep close to ways to keep in touch with bad weather warnings. If you have cell phone capability to have weather alerts sent to your phone, it would be a good idea to do so.
