I thought it was crazy how the tornado struck chapman....JUMPED over Junction City....and came back down on Manhattan!!

[BrandonIvey]

The Chapman tornado occluded (roped out) north of I70. The Manhattan tornado was from a different circulation that developed in the storm. That tornado first touched down near Ogden and tracked up into Manhattan. These were two separate tornadoes and nothing was on the ground when the storm tracked over Junction City.

Dude...dont make this about politics....if youre so worried about our nation, you should come together with everyone and try not to talk shit on people that are part of the same nation as you. This tonado has brought many people together....dems and republicans alike...working together to fix all that has happened. Forget about politics during these times...Have a heart for everyone. Your fellow dems were hit as well....Republicans were hit...everyone was affected.

Tornadoes can happen anywhere anytime accept Antarctica because there is no warm air there. It is not a fact robomantis. There more common in America. SO go back and restudy tornadoes and get your facts right

The was a horrible time for chapman but somehow our schools ended up with 300 more kids??

[Aussiegirlrox]

We do get them but they happen in places like Perth and brisban but i am not sure if we get them big or not because i live in katoomba and i haven't herd any history about katoomba getting them so i would'nt know

I live 6 miles away from Chapman and go to school there. That tornado wiped out all of our schools. And today's voting day for the bond for new schools!

australia does get them...

I lived in Manhattan as a child on Stagg Hill. I have lived in Northern California for the past 30 years where the weather is always non threatening. A few earhquakes once in a while. I find Tornadoes much more terrorizing. If I have to visit Kansas for any reason. I must have a basement room to sleep in. Otherwise, I'd probably develop anxiety if the sky turns grey. In california, when its grey, its either fog or light rain. But in Ks, it seems like an automatic Tornado watch.. Yikes..

Hey black78sheep if your saying people deserve storms, you deserve a tornado. I live in Chapman and I did not deserve a storm.

You sir, are and idiot.

70 mph winds occuring along either a 250 mile squall line is not "common". And if thats not the case, a single storm with enough energy to produce 70 mph winds AND travel 250 miles is even less common.

Again, I reiterate, bad storms (***INCLUDING TORNADOES***) occur on every continent except Antarctica. If you're not going to do your homework, please slap yourself in the face repeatedly.
