Storm Warning: The Story of a Killer Tornado

Posted by admin on May 15, 2012

tornado
Product DescriptionMay 3, 1999, is a day that Oklahomans will never forget. By the time the sun set over a ravaged plain, some 71 Tornadoes had claimed around 11,000 homes and businesses and caused $1 billion in damage. One of them was a mile-wide monster of incredible power, the fiercest F5 twister to hit a metropolitan area, and whose 300 mph winds were the fastest ever recorded.

Veteran journalist Nancy Mathis draws on many interviews to weave the story of those few terrifying hours that irrevocably changed the lives of many Oklahomans. Storm Warning features Kara Wiese, who fought to save her son from the fatal winds; and Charlie Cusack, who followed the tornado’s progress on television until it came knocking on his front door. Amazingly, only thirty-eight people perished at the hands of the Oklahoma F5. Many lives were saved by the efforts of professionals such as Ted Fujita, the creator of the Fujita Scale and dubbed “Mr. Tornado” for his relentless pursuit to unravel a twister’s mysteries; the oft-criticized but dogged government meteorologists; and Gary England, a resourceful TV weatherman whose tireless efforts prepared hundreds of people in the tornado’s path. Storm Warning alternates between personal stories and the history of the struggle to understand this bewildering force of Mother Nature, creating a nail-biting, captivating look at surviving the fury from the skies.

What should you do if an earthquake and a tornado happened in the same place at the same time?

Posted by admin on May 9, 2012

Via the best thing, I mean. This has never happened before in history but what should you do if a tornado were to hit and an earthquake both in the same location simulataneously and you were upstairs full of windows to stay safe from the earthquake but puts you in danger of the tornado storm that is also going on or if you’re down basement, you’re safe from the tornado but also put yourself in danger of the earthquake. Please help! I don’t want to have one of my internet friends killed because of this and I’d do everything that’s right to protect my friends.

Well first, you should never be upstairs in a house when a tornado watch/warning is given out. Also, an earthquake would destroy the basement, so you need to get under a sturdy table in the center on the ground floor. The house collapsing in the earthquake would simulate a tornado passing by, and if a tornado went by, debris would be sucked up and blown away from you.

The next thing is that earthquake zones are pretty far away from tornadoes, and buildings in earthquake zones are often built strong to withstand very large earthquakes. Being strong, they would also last through a Tornado, so you would be really safe.
