Another example of why I believe people should be taught to leave if they don’t have underground shelters in these extreme cases.

Watch that video and show me where someone walks away unscathed above ground in a home?

Those aren’t trailers, those are well built houses and not a single room is intact.

Saw it first hand with the Hackleburg storm where it tracked for 100 miles on a very similar path to this one (pull up a map of hackleburg and you’ll see Amory and Smithville down to the SW).

They had time to tell people to go. I get that they don’t want to cause panic and depending on where someone is they could just drive right into it, but not telling them what to expect doesn’t seem fair either.

Some of those stacks of rubble look to be 20’-30’ high…one had a car on top. Awful.
