The highest wind speed ever measured in a tornado, and also the highest wind speed ever recorded on the planet, is 301 ± 20 mph (484 ± 32 km/h); recorded in the Moore, Oklahoma F5 tornado of May 3, 1999.

T wister outbreak
O minous clouds
R otating skies
N oxious winds
A pproaching rapidly
D estruction imminent
O ccluded life

Nice write, very expressive and yes it was very devestating. We saw the destructiive power and its aftermath. It was so devestating that there are no words to describe the scene....

Be safe,
Karen

Holysmokes, Lavender,

This one is intense. Succinct word choice builds to a poem on the EF 5 Scale! Excellent!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
