Is it the law of averages or something kinetic? Tornadoes seem to hit mobile home parks the most. 2 lives lost, 12 injured and thousands in damages in Wyoming. One couple has memories not many others can say they have: they flew threw the air under the power of the tornado.
Tornado strikes Wyoming town'They can remember flying through the air'-From CNNSunday, August 14, 2005; Posted: 11:19 a.m. EDT (15:19 GMT)
WRIGHT, Wyoming (AP) -- Residents had just five minutes warning before a tornado tore into a mobile home park, killing two people and destroying dozens of homes.
About a dozen people were injured, but only one remained hospitalized Saturday. Three people who had been listed as missing Friday night were found safe.
The twister touched down Friday afternoon in this coal-mining town of 1,500 people and was on the ground an estimated 10 to 15 minutes, destroying 40 to 50 mobile homes, scattering metal siding, insulation, home furnishings and debris throughout the town.
