Tornado winds are not consistent. Wind speeds rapidly increase and decrease. An obstruction, such as a house, causes the wind to change direction and increase pressure on parts of the house. This creates stress on the house that can cause building components to fail. Please take a look at our free video on the left sidebar for an visual idea of reinforcement methods.
