Tornadoes

Sunday night a large tornado smashed into Joplin Missouri. Right now there have been 122 confirmed dead as the tornado wiped out 3/4ths of Joplin and destroyed many homes and a hospital. Meteorologists could not figure out how dangerous it was but it was wrapped in rain (full of rain). Meteorologists also commented that on a scale of one to ten the tornado was about an 8 or 9.


I think the tornado was a tragic event because of the size of the tornado. Also, this is now one of the deadliest tornadoes (if not the deadliest) in American history. I think that state governments in the south should work to put up some sort of tornado walls to protect  cities and towns from further disasters.

3.sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere combine with water to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
