Yeah, tornados can be just as bad as hurricanes. Sometimes you don't even get much of a warning with a tornado. Because they can develop so fast & unexpected. Times they can get bad here in Indiana.

but technology today had improved so much better than in the past.. especially now that they can identify the hook on the radar. With Technology they were able to warn people within 30 minutes of tornado warning so not many people have died today compare to the past. So that is good news! :)
 
Yes that's true, I know technology has. But recently one developed so fast no one got much of a warning down in southern Indiana around Evansville. Of course it was 2 or 3am in the morning. I think that was in March or April. Alot of people died in that one. I can't rememberr everything from it. But was a bad one.

Evansville Tornado of November 2005 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tornado warnings were in effect at the time and issued about 30 minutes before the tornado hit, but few people were alerted; many were asleep.

The reason why alot of people died in that storm is cuz not many were up then.. thats why...
