I heard on the news tonight that the residents had a 20 minute warning to seek
shelter.  If they didn't have an early warning system, or it happened a few
hours later while everyone was asleep, I think that there would have been a
thousand dead people and not around a dozen.  I'm shocked by how little loss of
life there was, seeing how total the destruction was.
