I read an article written by a scientist from Ohio State University that said climate change would not necessarily be overall warming of the planet,although that too could happen. He said that climate change would be indicated by increasingly severe storms. Hurricanes would become bigger and stronger,tornadoes would become bigger with stronger winds. Hurricane Sandy comes to mind.,Katrina comes to mind.,the tornado that practically wiped Joplin Missouri off the map two years ago leaps into my thoughts. Now, for the second time, Moore Oklahoma has been destroyed, neeed I go on? The earth will always support some kind of life, whether it will be human life remains to be seen.

Since I was about 7-years old, I've had an unreasoning, irrepressable, bizarre desire to be in a tornado. I mean to actually run on foot and be taken up into the funnel. This is really no different then Evil Kinevel, shark cage divers, parachuting or any other dangerous sport except this one is guaranteed to be fatal on the first attempt. I'm thinking massive padding and a no-fail deployment parachute might save my life but I doubt landing on 20 mattresses from 1,000 feet isn't going to make much difference, lol.

Notice how the Low lying city has FEW highrise structures...Notice how the LARGE lightening strike struck the Largest aerial. COnclusion the Aerial may no longer be grounded and lightening has very high voltages. Radio equipment comes to mind.
