It’s Time To Get Serious About Safety

Tornadoes have been devastating in America this year, as well as all forms of severe weather. Hurricanes have dumped record rain falls, and just when meteorologists think the end may be in sight another crop of dangerous weather events take place. Tornadoes have taken the lives of two more Americans. The death count is rising too fast for the country to properly grieve. Tragedy doesn’t seem to stop striking these days.

The National Weather Service reported tornadoes struck “four states: Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania”. Ohio was hit hard, and was under a state of emergency during and after the event. The residents experienced a large amount of property damage throughout the affected area, as well as non life threatening injuries.

Tornadoes have been punishing farmers in Ohio. Several tornadoes went throughout the entire state, and some strong winds hit rural areas outside of the touch down zone. The weather has severely damaged crops, barns, and livestock this year. Property damage estimates are still climbing. In all over 20,000 residents were without power in Ohio.

A tree fell onto an SUV in Kentucky. The severe winds uprooted the tree and injured a mother and father. The injuries they sustained from the tree falling on them eventually claimed their lives.

It’s Time To Prepare

Elephant has published many articles this tornado season on how important it is that those who live in areas susceptible to tornadoes prepare by buying a safe room. Not only has severe weather taken the lives of citizens this year, gun violence is at an all time high.

The Gun Violence Archive reports there have been 13,302 deaths by gun violence in America this year. Also that there are nearly enough shootings in America this year to put the country at one shooting per day. It’s downright devastating that the citizens of the greatest country on Earth have to live in fear of their neighbors. These days, it’s best to be on the safe side. Gun violence can take place anywhere.
