It is never good.

I don't know about the deniers. They have ignored all warning signs. They will blame this outbreak on Jesus, chem trails, or HAARP. But climate science is "nonsense" to them.

Tornado outbreaks are typical this time of year. That's another thing they will point out. "It's just Spring." They ignore the fact that we're seeing more of the large varieties of tornadoes. Imagine if monsters like the one in El Reno become more commonplace. We'd be screwed.
