I cannot believe that we (in the Philippines) are also experiencing tornado. I just thought that tornado, cyclones and twisters were only experienced by the Americans or other countries except the Philippines. But nothing really is impossible! So what now are we going to do? Does the government have early warnings if a tornado attacks? Is the Philippines ready for the next or if a tornado strikes again? Well, hoping for the fast action of our government about this new crisis for the safety of the Filipino people.
