Some reports say 9 dead. I saw somewhere that 72 was the max number of tornadoes within a short time period. Anyone know if these tornadoes are setting a record?

    It’s a way of representing how many houses, buildings, and apartments lost power, since 5 people might live in a house, but that’s only one customer.

      Yes. I know. And other people have already defended it the same way. Thanks for repeating them.

          Do you not read anything before replying to people? You know you can see other comments before saying anything. That’s how sites like these work.

            It is not bro’s job to read the comment thread that you created by not understanding how calculations of people effected by power outages work.
