Invariably these videos and articles elicit snarky comments from Europeans about substandard American housing, as if their homes could ride out a F5 tornado. Yeah that's just what we want, spend the majority of our adult lives living in some communal apartment the size of a phone booth because no one can afford a house until they're near retirement.

Heard that this morning.

Their stuff is blown away, why don't they leave?

This is result of government schooling, we're doing show and tell.

Big photogallery on this site of the devastation.  One particularly stunning shot has a "before" picture from Google street view. There are over eight pages of photos.

When you see the before and after pic it is not hard to realize that 1500 are missing. It looks like a giant lawnmower drove over the town with the blade set all the way down.

BTW...the guy has Shelby Cobra pics on page 12.

In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

Those pics are nightmarish, reminds me of Siren, WI except that Joplin is much larger and contains so much more devastation.  Unvbelievable!

As I suspected, after witnessing the damage they are saying this was an EF5.  And people are still looking for the missing, I pray they are successful!
