—”worst tornado outbreak since 1974” seems to manage to creep out in every news story-—seems like it may not be Bushes’fault-—

[thackney]

The tornado superoutbreak of April 3-4, 1974 resulted in 148 tornadoes in 13 states. Across the United States, 315 people were killed, more than 6,000 injured, and 27,000 families suffered property losses. The Xenia Tornado caused the most deaths of any tornado in the outbreak. In Ohio, 12 tornadoes touched down, killing 36 people.

We've had the worst winter in 28 years. Powerful cold fronts are still sweeping down out of Canada. This very cold air is meeting warm moist gulf air in the country's southern midsection and producing large mesocyclone supercell thunderstorms. The tornados come with them. So global warming has nothing to do with it whatsoever!
