发帖数: 27535 | 1 CHICAGO — The deadliest US tornado season in 75 years has ripped babies
from their mother's arms and transformed entire towns into apocalyptic
scenes of destruction as the toll hit 523.
And it isn't over yet.
While warmer summer weather should hopefully reduce their intensity, the
peak tornado season runs through July and twisters can strike at any time.
The damage is as unimaginable as it is unpredictable.

最近的一次发生在2011年，小打小闹，好在没人员伤害。 1997年Austin地区发生过F5
级龙卷风（跟这次OK同样级别的），死27人。除了龙卷风以外，历史上Austin地区还有
6次飓风灾害。
On 5/27/1997, a category F4 (max. wind speeds 207-260 mph) tornado 14.0
miles away from the Austin city center killed one person and injured 5
people and caused $15 million in damages.

Explanation: Large storms on Earth can spawn unusual, small, violent clouds known as
tornadoes. Tornado clouds swirl as fast as hundreds of kilometers per hour and, when they
touch down, can destroy nearly everything in their long, narrow path. Many tornadoes last
only a few minutes, but the largest and most dangerous can endure for hours. The above
image, although somewhat unfocussed, appears to show |

Ten US Air Force planes, including two E-4B "doomsday" aircraft, were
damaged when a tornado hit near Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska last week,
the service told CNN on Friday.
Nicknamed the Air Force's "doomsday" plane, the Boeing-made E-4B serves as
an aerial command center in case of national emergency or destruction of
ground bases.
It provides a "highly survivable command, control and communications center

8点多瞄了眼，发现tornado朝我而来
有感于这个apt不大稳，主要我住顶楼
于是决定去公司地下停车场
结果大街上traffic很差
感觉继续走，我只有在大街上迎接tornado
于是拐进路边whole food market
店员很nice, 带领一伙人躲后面厨房了
他们管它叫cooler
是真冷
店员拿来很多工作服分给大家
于是，我生平第一次穿上whole food market工作服，很是激动
再次感谢那几个店员 |

以后可能不会有这样的机会了
昨天一路12hour天黑开到little rock, AR，住店super8.
一早6点多被惊雷炸醒，每一个闪电下来，整个地都在抖，就像宙斯用大锤砸地一样
等雨小了，继续赶路，下午3点左右到达Oklahoma city,本来想去看看那个被炸过的楼，
但是一个人实在没劲，就一路I40往西,这时radio 传来tornado的预警，而且风也越来
越大，
限速70的路我只能开50,否则整个车都在飘，找了个加油站给gf打电话帮我看卫星云图
，查i40w前面有
没有tornado,确定没有后又一路往西开到santa rose, nw.
本来计划开到memphis就休息，今天到ok的，幸好昨天开的多，今天miss了tornado.
希望后面的路越开越好 |

发帖数: 8271 | 8 Powerful storm on Thursday evening in NYC has swept part of the city killing
one lady, uprooting trees, damaging buildings and destroying cars. The wind
speed of the tornado was up to 70 miles per hour. On Thursday afternoon,
the National Weather Service had issued a warning of Tornado in the New York
City, but it could not determine whether the tornado was actually formed.
The one fatality is said to have happened due to the overturning of the
vehicle by the strong winds and landed on a person. |

authorities imposed an overnight curfew in a 4-square-mile area, including
some of the city's poorest neighborhoods, to prevent looting and keep
streets clear for emergency crews. Mayor R.T. Rybak said one liquor store
was looted right after the tornado hit late Sunday and a few burglaries took
place overnight.

发帖数: 1430 | 49 这哪里2000能拿得下。光材料差不多。这个工程显然labor cost远大于材料。
这要在车库里挖个洞，别忘了，车库地面那可是地基的一部分，钢筋混凝土的，打那么
大个洞不是个小工程，要不少钱吧，而且不是自己干的了得。而且，直接损害地基的强
度，因为显然地基里的钢筋得截断。
防tornado确实是个问题，不过我觉得这个方案不够好。
