Tornadoes in WV
I found a really interesting database that lists storms and storm tracks of tornadoes in WV since about 1950, and got quite a surprise:
June 27th, 1978
This tornado apparently tracked right over where our house is!
Having seen that, I think that building that root cellar/storm shelter has just gone up in priority! Prior to this, I thought the closest tornado to hit was in Clarksburg, some 20 miles away.
