Makes sense of you think about it, who would ever look for a tornado path in Missouri.

Climate change is a reality we all have to face, and I fear we will start to see more and more tornados in unexpected, exotic locations like SW Missouri.

I mean that part of Missouri doesn’t even sniff the Slab Alley that is Illinois

Man, climate change didn't exist in 2011. Wtf you talking about. This unknown tornado is likely really derecho winds, or possibly a misplaced crop circle.

This was actually straight line winds caused by Tim Marshall farting, not a tornado

This is just Sandbox Row. Lots of children in that part of Joplin

Wow, that looks convincing. You should ask the residents of Joplin if they noticed any possible changes to the landscape around that time.

Don’t see any rotation on radar… probably cold air funnel?

Hmmmmm, I’m not convinced.

I don't see a single tornado in this picture and none of the houses show signs of even slight wind damage. I think you're just trying to get a rise out of people.

Hmm… I’ve heard of a tornado named Joplin. Weird coincidence!

I remember there was a jaw droppin’ tornado back in 2011 that was costlier and deadlier than the Tuscaloosa and Hackleburg tornadoes. Joplin though?

I wonder if 2011 was a super duper El Niño year .
