I asked myself the same question,
From memory, we've been warn at around a week in advance and how could there be so many lives has been lost but after watching how it started, how did it leap and how fast it was going, there is no way on earth anyone would have been prepare enough to fight this freak weather. It was way too fast and too lethal, an inferno.
I thought it was bad enough in my previous post at the start there were 31 lives lost but the figure that we have now is just too devastating, too horific. I deeply wish that this never was has happened.
Once again, RIP.
