tornado warning for Greensburg Kansas, rotation is not strong thankfully.

A town totally obliterated by an EF-5 in 2007.

The man with the farm next door to ours (and who farmed our land for nearly 60 years!) had moved into Greensburg that year, built a nice house, so he could be closer to medical services. He commuted to the farms.

He and Elsie survived by tucking themselves under the bottom of the basement stairs. They were beat up but lived. Literally every other piece of their new tornado-spec house was scrubbed away down to the foundation. They lost a number of friends.
