At least 17 tornadoes hit Central US during a severe weather outbreak in March, leaving a massive trail of destruction. Nashville, Tennessee was heavily affected this month as a huge tornado cut a path through downtown, killing 25 people, destroying buildings, toppling electrical lines, and littering streets with debris.
Also last month, an earthquake rocked Croatia's capital Zagreb - the strongest quake to hit that city in 140 years - damaging buildings and leaving cars crushed by falling chunks of masonry. In Russia's Far East region, a 7.2-magnitude quake struck off the Kuril Islands and set off a minor tsunami.
The skies, as always these days, are heavy with meteor traffic. The media didn't report it as such, but based on eyewitness statements and analysis made by local experts, we suspect that a meteor IMPACTED the planet last month, carving out a major 68 feet-wide crater in the middle of a road in the Nigerian city of Akure.
