There are few words that strike more fear into hearts in Middle America than the word tornado and rightly so.
Twisters can hit so suddenly and do such awful damage.
That was proven again when some deadly tornadoes tore through Oklahoma in 1999 one of them so strong that it was almost classified an F6 which would have created a whole new category of tornado. In light of the power of those storms, the story I saw on the evening news was amazing. After hearing one of those tornado warnings for the tornadoes in Oklahoma, a mother and her adult daughter went into a room in their house for safety. It s called a safe room or a strong room it s built with concrete that s reinforced with metal. And it s built to withstand even a hit by a tornado.
