File this under "Severe weather can strike anywhere": A tornado touched down in Frederickson, Washington on Monday morning. While tornadoes aren't unheard of in The Evergreen State (They average about two a year), they are unusual, especially this time of year. Fortunately, the EF-1 tornado caused no injuries.
Still, photos of the damage were impressive. The tornado struck several buildings, including the Boeing plant in town. The tornado also damaged several cars and knocked over rail cars in the area.
With all of this happening on the last day of National Preparedness Month, this is a prime example of why you should be always be prepared for extreme weather. -BA
