Severe Tornadoes On the Way

Severe Tornadoes on the Way

By Elton Camp

For folks living in the United States Midwest
Nature’s fury may soon put them to the test

The scary weather conditions draw very near
People are being warned what they should fear

The states in extreme danger, the authorities say
From Texas to Minnesota is in great harm’s way

So please expect “a high-end, life threatening event”
Is how the Storm Predictions Center warning went

Expect new words in weather service proclamation
Like “unsurvivable, catastrophic & mass devastation”

In view of what the National Weather Service detected,
These dire words describe accurately what is expected

Because of a combination of events coming together
People in this area should keep a check on the weather
