    I used to live in Little Rock .. I was always terrified of the violent storms we had . I moved to another state where most homes were built w/ basements.. I felt safer w/ a place to shelter . My thoughts and prayers are with the people who suffered this horrendous storm. I still have family there and they were spared any injuries or damage.

      A shelter is way better then a basement. A basement is scary if over f1 or 2

      I felt safe in the brick house w/2 floors above me in northern Illinois.. I only had to retreat to the basement twice .. I now live in hurricane territory.. but at least I know when they are coming and take appropriate action.

      @derekbaker3279 Год назад

      @Erikk Hyndman Not necessarily. First, the high-end EF-3 rating is a preliminary rating. More work has to be done over the next day or two before the final rating is shared.
      Furthermore, you have to keep in mind that the EF damage rating does not depend on just the damage you see from drone footage. The damage indicators the engineers & meteorologists in the damage assessment teams use are also based on the structural integrity of the buildings affected by the tornado, e.g. the 'EF standards' require wood frame structures that were built to code with the proper materials, including the required type & spacing of anchor bolts connecting the roof frames to the wall frames, and the same connecting the wall frames to a concrete foundation. The damage indicators also require that the structure has been well-maintained, e.g. there has been no deterioration to the wood framing by water damage, termites, etc..
      For example, many of the homes & apartment buildings destroyed in the May 22, 2011 Joplin, Missouri EF-5 tornado were not built to code and/or the structural integrity of the homes & apartment buildings had been compromised by water/mould damage, lack of repair, repair with improper materials, etc. (*) These issues meant that, despite the incredible destruction seen by everyone (and the terrible number of injured & fatalities), closer examinations by the NWS experts determined that the structures in the path of the tornado were not as strong as they should have been. This, in-turn, meant that the damage assessment teams could not find evidence that proved that the buildings must have been destroyed by a violent tornado with winds in excess of 199mph (EF-5 level damage). As it turned out, the only evidence that proved that the tornado was capable of causing EF-5 level damage came from the movement of a few extremely heavy concrete barriers.
      (*) These issues are far more common with residential buildings in the southern USA & in the Midwest than many people realize.

    That area of LR hasn't ever seen any storms like this one...usually we get it hard out hwy5 in Bryant and Benton...they used to like to "creep" up I-30/hwy5 headed towards LR. In the early 80's I was in school at Heritage Christian School on Stagecoach Road and we took virtually a direct hit-tore off the end of our gym and blew out all the windows and glass double doors in the school. We were TERRIFIED! On a lighter note, my Dad was an alcoholic and told me when he picked me up a little later that he was under the pool table (WITH his beer, of course!) watching it happen! Thanks a lot Pops, God rest your soul! I am praying for everyone affected by this storm at 6am and 6pm every day if you'd like to join me in spirit. God Bless Everyone!

    Excellent drone footage, as usual!👍👍 The damage seen in this video really reinforces the importance of being weather aware, heeding tornado warnings, and taking shelter in an interior room without windows, in lowest level of the house. I would think that those who were caught in the top floor of these homes and/or by large windows on any level would have been seriously injured or killed. Those who were able to shelter in a basement, or in an interior room on the lowest floor (ground level or basement) would have had a good chance of escaping injury or ending up with injuries were not too serious.

      Climate change has not shown to cause more tornadoes. While it does increase the energy needed for powerful thunderstorms (including tornado-producing ones), upper-level wind shear, another important factor in tornado development, is actually weakened by climate change due to the decreasing contrast between polar temperatures and warmer temperatures (such as that from the Gulf). These are just average trends, however, and there will always be exceptions to the rule.
