"Footage from the storm, known locally as a "twister"...

Known locally? Where is this person from? They're known everywhere as a twister.

As a lifelong midwesterner, I have never heard anybody use the term twister in reference to a tornado. We just call it [insert appropriate day of the week].

60 mph winds? I guess God was only a "little angry". Otherwise there would be utter desolation and destruction. Not like "gay people have stolen my rainbow" angry. More like the kind of wrath you get with, Darn! This soup is only lukewarm.

Absolutely nothing to worry about, its not like they change wind speed mid-carnage.

/ignore a low F tornado and you deserve what you get.

Had two spawn less than 20 minutes from my home last night.  One touched down for a brief time.

The Fujita and Enhanced Fujita Scale can only be determined by reviewing damage, so it is impossible to assign a number until after the event.
