|    Facts About Joplin, Missouri Tornado    |

      The following is an excerpt from a question and answer article that appeared       in the May 25th edition of the New York Times, for those of you who may be       wondering:              Question: How bad has this year's tornado season been, relative to other       years?              Answer: Extraordinarily bad, even by historical standards. The death toll,       now at more than 480, is the highest since 1953, when an outbreak of       twisters across the Midwest and the Northeast claimed 519 lives. The high       death toll this year is all the more remarkable considering that early       warning systems are in place throughout tornado country, made possible by       the advent of Doppler radar. Many tornado experts believed that the advances       in technology had greatly diminished the risk of mass tornado fatalities.              "We never thought there'd be another year of deaths like this, with all our       warning systems," said Thomas P. Grazulis, a tornado historian.              Since 1875, there have been just 15 years with more than 360 tornado deaths,       and none since 1975. The single deadliest tornado year in the United States       was 1925, with 794 fatalities. This year now ranks eighth on the list of       deadliest tornado years.              The tornado that struck Joplin, Mo., on Sunday, with its death toll now       standing at 122, is the deadliest in recorded history. The second deadliest       was a twister that barreled through Flint, Mich., in 1953, killing 116.              -- John Collins Rudolf                            Jeff Snyder, SysOp - Armageddon BBS Visit us at endtimeprophecy.org port 23       ----------------------------------------------------------------------------       Your Download Center 4 Mac BBS Software & Christian Files.
