Same with this, if this tornado hits 20 yrs ago in same place probably not as many people die because there wasn’t many people living there..

Same is true with hurricane damage. Damage is worse than in storms of the pastdecades because there is a lot more development...everywhere.

Yes...a much stronger tornado could have gone through the plains and done little damage...but this one hit a highly developed area.

yep, everybody is moving to the south where their are tornados and hurricanes, so we should expect too see more of this.
