re: More Central U.S. Severe Weather: 4/30/24 - 5/3/24

They simply want every tornado to be a "monster" F4+ bc people are stupid and want to be a part of something "extreme" or "cool". Society is always wanting things to either be the "worst thing ever" or "best thing ever"

This is a strange comparison but it's the same reason every couple of years we get the future "best ever" in the NFL&NBA drafts. Hell we have even had it in the MLB draft (remember Stephen Strasburg?). People and the media (who do it bc people love it) love hyperbole and extremes therefore they are trying to will it into existence

It happens with every damn tornado of much significance these days and as I've made clear before it really pisses me off. These people are ignorant and act like total jackasses
