Duck and Cover


If you happen to be in Kansas, that is.

I just heard Anderson Cooper say that forecasters are calling tonight's storm system over the plains *the scariest they've seen since 1974*. If you know anything about how bad tornado outbreaks have been in this country. . . that's an extremely scary statement.

And it's been a record-breaking year for twisters already. . .




(I mean, holy fuck. . .)

P.S. I haven't been able to find out who Anderson was quoting, but mentioning 1974 has to be a reference to the worst tornado episode in recorded history -- The Super Outbreak. 148 twisters, over 300 people killed.
