Chicken and Vegetables in a Tortilla?


What the Meteorologist Says
Based on damage surveys around the Iowa State campus the Thursday tornado had estimated winds around 75 mph which puts it in the F1 Fujita Tornado Damage Scale and this would be considered a small tornado.
What My Mom Hears
Based on damage surveys around the Iowa State campus the Thursday tornado had estimated winds around 75 mph which puts it in the F1 Bejesus Tornado Damage Scale and this would be considered a small tornado.
She feels, as do I, that people would be more apt to heed the warnings of a Bejesus Scale rather than a Fujita Scale. Nobody has ever had the Fujita scared out of them.
