There was a long article in today's paper about the huge surge in Tornado tourism. There are over a dozen companies running storm-chasing tours. Tourist from all over the world come to see tornadoes. The professionals out doing a job really hate it, as the tourists are in the way and clogging the roads and making it more dangerous.

This one in 203 was a MILE wide! And moving across the ground at over 60 MPH. Four professional storm chasers were killed as they could not get out of the way fast enough.
