Good morning,
I took my High School students through a crash course of Tornadoes and Severe weather yesterday as a High-risk day provided ample opportunities to educate them about what to do if they are in that type of situation. We talked about the fallacy of no warning of approaching tornadoes and I impressed on them that you do not want to be in the path of a tornado. I tried not to fear-monger by the way...

Anyways, I mentioned to them the extreme sorts of damage that the EF 5 does other than wipe city blocks from the earth. A couple images stuck out at me from Joplin: A 2 by 4 through a car battery and a school chair skewered into the gate of a pick-up truck. I mentioned these to my students and tried searching for them on google and on this website but have had no joy so far. Hoping that you guys would be able to point me in the correct direction and also provide more examples of the unique damage that can occur with these extreme winds.

Thanks
