The story mentioned that there was one city with more volunteer firefighters, does anybody know what that city is?

Pasadena Fire Department. Troy not even close.

That’s Pasadena, TX. Not Pasadena, CA. Never knew there was more than one. 👍

There is only one Pasadena! Anyone who has ever watched "Urban Cowboy" knows that.

I guess the vollies in the Pasadena FD are pretty busy right now. They just had a tornado go through there about an hour ago.

I laughed when I saw this 😂!

I did see the tornado and I recognized the name immediately. I hope no deaths, minimal injuries & they can all get back on their feet soon.

In addition to being the redneck capitol of the known universe, Pasadena (along with adjacent Deer Park and La Porte) is the economic center of the United States with all the petrochemical plants and refineries. Wall Street analysts are busy trying to assess how the emergency operational shutdowns due to damage and loss of electricity will the affect country.

It goes without saying that looters may want to give the place a wide berth. The natives are well-armed and likely not in a good mood.

For you Yankee fans, Andy Pettitte used to live in Deer Park.
