Abstract
- The article discusses the impact of tornadoes with funnels that twirled at 200 mph across the 'tornado alley' in the U.S. Accordingly, urgent warnings had been issued by weathermen to residents within the Alley which referred to the vast stretch of plains lying between the Appalachians and the Rockies that swept from Georgia and Alabama up to Canada. It notes that tornado winds chewed up homes and businesses, toppled massive power line towers, and sent cars, buses and even freight trains spinning aloft and even wiped out whole families.
