Storm Season Has Started In The States

A massive storm system has unleashed terrible fury in the latest start ever to tornado season in the states. Four days of severe weather had been forecast to hit southern tornado alley states starting on Saturday but after a blue sky bust that day, storms began to explode first thing Sunday morning and continue to pound many states into Monday evening with no slow down in sight. Moderate Risk was raised to High Risk early Sunday with 32 tornadoes reported on the Storm Prediction Center page. One was said to have been a multi-vortex with a destructive path of 80 or more miles long in Alabama with many injured and some killed.
