I wonder if there were more tornados that went unseen in the 50's or 60's. Now everyone has a cellphone camera and there is supertripleviperduper doppler radar. If the recent Suffolk tornados happened 10 years ago, there whould have only been damage to Burnett's Mill and some farm land. 30 years ago, it would have damaged some trees and a farm. 20 years from now there could be 200 more houses in the Hillpoint area.
500 years ago, tornados may have happened every year, who would know?
