Today's storms...

Ok, I've talked to Cmitch and Bear on FB, as well as others, so I know they survived the storms. I tried to call CLK to see how he fared, but there was no answer...but I noticed he's posted here since then.

Is everyone ok and accounted for??

And 3/4 of the town near it...

West Liberty, KY, east of Lexington has been leveled as well, as per Multiple Fatalities Reported In West Liberty | LEX18.com | Lexington, Kentucky

I just got off the phone with some of my brothers and a couple of trucks will be loaded with needed supplies such as clothing, food, water, and other essentials, tomorrow morning heading for these towns. At least I know people in wholesale that was able to give a good price on cases of water...the rest is coming in through other donations.

We had some tornados and hail roll through last night. Fortunately no damage...and it forced us to get creative with the garage. We managed to squeeze 3 cars into the two car garage!

Glad to hear it.

Hope everyone else pulled through safe and sound as well.

Here are some photos my paper had of the destruction.

Aerial photos of tornado damage | cincinnati.com | Cincinnati News | Cincinnati.com


I'm about 20 miles south of the Crittenden area. Four dead up there. Just came through and tore up everything. Then it went to Moscow, Oh and leveled that poor town.
My nephew is one of those storm chasing scientists. He was watching everything with his gear from Kansas. Texted his mother (my sister) and told her to pass along to the family that this was one to really take seriously
