Storms

Spring time (really all the time) is prime time for severe weather around here. Last weekend we had a number of big storms roll through - one of which produced a good sized tornado (is there really a good size for a tornado?)

I thought this map was pretty interesting in detailing the path of the tornado and shows that while we were close to the storm, we were well away from where the most intense portions were. We live roughly in OFallon. John works roughly where this map says Florissant, and his building was out of power for 3 and a half days, so he had an unexpected day off last week. The storm occurred on Friday, May 31.
