It matters in the realm of science. Warnings, how they warn, the advice the warnings provide. Back in 2013 Mike Morgan got a lot of **** for telling people in the path of the el Reno tornado to get in their car and drive out of the direct path if they could. Ive always thought it would be wise for NWS to add that kind of language to their warnings in certain situations. As we figure out what can survive and what can’t, we can move down that path and hopefully save lives in the future.
Makes sense there too when you consider the lack of basements/availability of solid shelter for that region of the country as well.
