We had a tornado here in Maryland that struck a school back in the 30’s, a few years ago another tornado struck that same school.

Maybe it would be wise not to build in that same spot.

La Plata was nailed by one back when (1920s?), and again just a few years back (April 28, 2002). The first one hit the school and killed a few kids, the second one destroyed the cafeteria at Archbishop Neale School (no school that day) and a lot more of town (F-5 downgraded to an F-4). The 2002 tornado had started on the ground east of Port Tobacco and eventually made it to the Chesapeake Bay. My grandparents’ former home was leveled in that one.
