Anyone get hit with the Tornado's?

Just wondering if everyone's OK.

I was lucky by being down in Mississippi when it came thru St. Louis on Good Friday. Have to feel sorry for Joplin, now Oklahoma. What is going on with all this. Plus the floods.

I don't think anyone that's gone through this will be posting anytime soon. This is a tragedy of enormous proportions. I pray that everyone can recover and move forward.

I got a Email from my cousin's DW in Ok. this morning. She said they had some rotational wind but it didn't touch down until it was past them.

My Cousin lives in Joplin, his house is 1/4 mile from the WalMart that was leveled. His home isn't badly damaged but they can't live in it because there are no utilities. He and his family were at Church when the tornado hit and the Church was undamaged.

Having been in a community just hours after a major tornado hit (as part of my "old" job - insurance adjuster), my heart goes out to these people. The long hours and inconvenience of trying to set up shop where there were no services doesn't begin to compare with what our customers were going through. I'll also offer the opinion that as bad as it looks on TV, you're still emotionally unprepared when you walk into it the first time. As they say, there's nothing like being there.
