Truly a travesty. Can't residents be forewarned of a natural disaster such as this so they can evacuate?


No. Tornados's hit pretty quickly.

If you were to try and evacute during a tornado chances are you'd get hit by the tornado while in your car trying to leave.

This was a bad one. I heard a story on the radio about a teacher who latched all the desks in the classroom together and the kids hid under the desks. Saved them when the school was ripped to shreds!

I've heard a few incredible survivor stories already - this was an insane event

Do you guys have tornadoes in England?

The UK actually has the second most tornadoes per square mile in the entire world! One notable tornado was one we had in Birmingham in 2005
