No, the Simpsons are in Springfield, Illinois.

No the Simpsons are in Springfield, New Jersey obviously!

No the Simpsons are in Springfield, Australia.

Simpsons live in Springfield, Ohio.

Looks like mostly EF1-2 damage, maybe some EF3 if you consider walls being torn partially off. I was following this cell on radar, good thing it wasn't as bad as it could've been. (Widespread damage but I doubt many lives were lost.)

It has actually been revealed that the Simpsons live in Springfield, Kentucky.

Are you guys dumb... The Simpsons don't live in the US.

Not that I am pleased at how off-topic this has gotten, the Ky argument holds the most water seeing as how The Simpsons writers have been very good at dropping hints, but, not revealing the actual location. There is a Shelbyville and Springfield in Ky.

There was a time they revealed the actual location..... It was a clip show.

They named the cities in Kentucky after The Simpsons. DUUUUHHHH.

Also, earlier yesterday, the tornado that hit Binger/Guthrie, OK was upgraded to an EF-5 status, making it the FIFTH EF-5 that has hit America in the last 2 months. On average, there is only one F5/EF-5 tornado every 1.15 years, so this is getting downright ridiculous.

1. Smithville, MS (April 27, 2011)
2. Hackleburg / Phil Campbell, AL (April 27, 2011)
3. Philadelphia, MS (April 27, 2011)
4. Joplin, MO (May 22, 2011)
5. Binger / Guthrie, OK (May 24, 2011)

Before this, the only other EF-5's on record were the Greensburg, KS tornado of May 4 2007, and the Parkersburg, IA tornado of May 25 2008. Crazy stuff.
