Alarming! Tornado appears most in America and other countries. It's strange that we also have this kind of natural disaster, we have no fight if it attack.

That's scary! I keep thinking of the devastation caused by tornadoes in other countries and I'm thankful that we never have them here. But now it seems that Things are changing. Seems like it's not only floods and earthquakes that we should pray wouldn't devastate our country. Even the dreaded tornadoes will, but hopefully not, be joining that list. Weather's really weird these days. And it's scary to think that it will only get worse as each year passes by. We have got to make drastic changes that will greatly benefit the environment to at least prevent these things from happening.

Oh that is scary to look from afar what more if you where actually there at where that twister landed. I seldom hear stories having strong twisters happening in our place. I certainly hope that there none that was hurt where that tornado hit. I can see in the picture it is quite large one and could be dangerous if it hits a populated area.
