Our local paper has been running stories on the F-5 Jarrell,TX tornado for it’s 10 yr anniversary (5.27.1997)

It ripped asphalt off roadways and completely removed houses including their concrete slabs, leaving nothing but, scarred earth. A total of 27 souls lost their lives that day including, entire families. I don’t need to pay some jerk who, is making money off of misery, a dime to see what I’ve seen with my own eyes.

We all need to remember Jarrell though and what these tornados can do. Don’t you think the one the ..I think Weather Channel plays occasionally is ok?

NOAA still has a lot of good information up on Jarrell, including animated radar showing how that odd storm formed that day.

Last night on National Geographic they showed the Jarrell tornado. What a crazy tornado it was, came out of nowhere moving at less than 10mph, because of that slow speed it essentially had time to sit and scour the ground. In contrast the Greensburg tornado moved faster than 30mph so it didnt have time to sit and scour.
