Blogs Cover Deadly F3 Tornado in Indiana

Bloggers are covering the deadly F3 tornado that struck Indiana and parts of Kentucky on Sunday. Well, at least a few bloggers area. Bruce Armstrong at Ordinary Everyday Christian is unimpressed with the blog coverage so far.
Why does it seem like I'm the only blogger outside of Indiana to write with any detail about the early Sunday morning tornado, which killed at least 22 people in Indiana, including 17 in one community? I've been unable to find a major blog with any significant writing on the latest natural disaster in America.
Not only was this tornado a strong F3, which is unusual for November, but it struck early in the morning when people were sleeping. One reason for the lack of coverage in the blogosphere is the bloggers are disastered out or they are just following the MSM's coverage. Also, while the tornado is a local disaster, a bigger disaster like the Pakistan Earthquake, is also suffering from a lack in blogosphere coverage.

Here are some other blogs covering the tornado:

  • Our Science News Blog reports that the storm was a strong F3.
  • Rick Klau blogs that more tornadoes are possible tonight in the Midwest.
  • Annotated Life discusses the risks of living in a mobile home and the rise in mobile home ownership. A lot of the people killed in the tornado lived in mobile homes.
  • Anne's Addictions is covering the storm and provides information about Evansville and Newburgh. She also links to this website which has missing persons information.
  • Judy Lyden is blogging from Newburgh, Indiana.
  • Just Another Day is covering the tornado and also provides an archived radar loop.
  • Brendan Loy has an update with images of local newspaper front pages.
  • Mike Kusbit discusses complaints about the warning siren that were raised in a New York Times article.
  • Theresa Talk says she is going to buy a weather band radio.
  • Facedown View simply asks Why? Pat Robertson thinks he has the answer. He said the tornado was God's wrath against actor Warren Beatty?
  • Other blogs covering the storm: Justin's Weather Blog | Democrat from Kentucky | Blond Lady J | Project Nothing | Our Life | Busy Bee | Star's Journal of Random Thoughts | In the Agor | Dr. Jeff Masters' WunderBlog
