I am dreading tornado season.

These outbreaks now are very early and exceptionally violent. If the pattern of much colder moist air colliding with much hotter humid air continues to occur, I shudder to think of the damage. It's bad enough when the air temperatures are only 10 or so degrees apart.

I can only hope that we have an anomalous summer to match the weird winter. I hope the weather is much cooer than normal.

If not............

Tornadoes swept across the Midwest and the South on Friday, hitting hardest in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio, where at least 28 people were killed. An entire town was flattened in Indiana, and homes and businesses were destroyed from Ohio to the Gulf Coast.

Fourteen people were killed in Indiana, 12 died in Kentucky and two people were killed in Ohio, said The Weather Channel on its website, weather.com. It wasn't immediately clear how many people were missing.

The town of Marysville, Ind., population about 1,900, was "completely gone," and Henryville Junior-Senior High School was destroyed, Clark County sheriff's Maj. Chuck Adams told NBC News. All the students escaped, some with minor scrapes, Adams said.

"This is no place to be. We've got a terrible tragedy here, and we've got to try and deal with it," Indiana State Police Sgt. Jerry Goodin told NBC station WAVE of Louisville.
