@jg300gman No, dude… Not a good idea… People would panic. All those people would then clog the streets, cause accidents and make the overall situation worse than it already is. Then, once all those people are out on the street, where are they supposed to go from there? Don’t forget, a large percentage of tornado-related deaths occur in vehicles…

This was a scary day in Oklahoma. I was fortunate enough to be just far enough east and south of Oklahoma City that the storm had lost a lot of its punch by the time it got near us.

Because trying to flee your homes is a bad idea as well. Especially for the majority of people who don’t understand storm motion and structure. You have a better chance of of surviving by taking shelter than trying to run from one of those beasts.

318? Wrong…the highest recorded wind speed on earth was 338 mph last year in NY City (Hillary Clinton’s hot air speech) lol

why are the weathermen not warning the people in Moore to get out of their homes if they do not have a basement? You cannot survive an F5 tornado (direct hit) without a basement! There will be nothing left and you will die or be seriously mangled. I don’t understand it. Don’t tell the people to hide in their pathetic closets as an F5 monster closes in! Have them drive out of the tornados path to a safer district of the city.
