The good news are that storms will increase in frequency over this year, compared to the years before. What does get me disturbed, though, is that with the heightening threat of a terrorist attack between borders in North America, Windsor still hasn't bought that 2001 that they are, or were, at least, opting for. I've seen a super cell storm almost spawn a tornado over our [former] building once, and that storm came from the Windsor area itself, not Detroit. You'd at least think that Windsor would put any bit of thought into a threat that is ready to develop into a major long-term issue to the city any month now!
Sarnia, at least, seems to be dwelling on the issue more than Windsor. Windsor is a well-built city; they are lazy in some aspects, though.
Windsor should initiate a public warning system, if not a strategic plan, soon.
A tornado can't be stopped over water, unless it's on a hill, in which occasion it would get stopped, if not lessened, anyway.
Wait, so City Hall was actually considering to buy a tornado siren?! :eh: When did they consider this?

And you've just contributed a reply that doesn't advance the discussion at all...

I remember reading an article about that sometime in late 2004 or early 2005, I believe, which I'm sure even at that time was a mere consideration - nothing substantive. That being said, I'm sure a system of sirens is the last thing on the city's mind, especially with the construction of that new cross-border "bridge to nowhere." :lol:

No kidding, I don't know what benifits an new bridge will have but lets not change the subject anymore than I already have. :lol: Anyways, I guess we will have to wait and see. Maybe the new mayor will be big on safety and stuff and if he is I would hope he would consider tornado sirens more than Eddie Francis has.
