Re: Greenburg KS tornado
I heard it was F5, the highest wind category.

That photo looks like part of South Dade (Miami-Dade County) after Hurricane Andrew.

The bad thing about tornadoes is that they can be so powerful.

The good thing about them (compared to hurricanes) is that they are so small (relatively speaking).

It is truly amazing that only about 8 (that I heard anyway) died. There is virtually nothing left of that town. That is 8 too many, but still ... it could easily have been more.
