Wild Weatherh in the West

California has been having some windy weather of late, with a tornado hitting the town of Denair in the Central Valley, damaging 21 homes. It has been categorized as a category 1 tornado (the weakest level), but since these are unusual in California it is still cause for notice.


The tornado uprooted trees, took down power lines, and attacked homes with debris at least a mile through town.  The wind speeds were from 86 to 110. Though this is nothing if you live somewhere like Tornado Alley, it is surprising to come across when you are from California.


Thankfully, no one was injured in this unusual weather instance.
