At least 23 people have died after tornadoes tore through the US state of Mississippi on Friday night.

 

More people are thought to be trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings.

 

The twisters caused devastation in several rural towns, where trees and power lines were torn down and tens of thousands of power outages were reported.

I am sure glad that all this terrible weather, including an increase in the frequency and intensity of tornadoes, the massive rains, snow and flooding isn't caused by Climate Change.   At least that's what the climate deniers would have us believe.

"In fact, when you remove small tornadoes from the record, the data does not suggest any long-term increase in tornado frequency. If anything, there may be a slight decline in the number of very strong tornado events."

You missed an important piece from that article:

 

"However, other research has found evidence of an increase in tornado power.

While there have been no long-term trends in the frequency of tornadoes, there have been changes in tornado patterns in recent years. Research has shown that there are fewer days with at least one tornado but more days with over thirty, even as the total number of tornadoes per year has remained relatively stable. In other words, tornado events are becoming more clustered."
