The last 4, 5 days have been really bad for tornado strikes (in Feb/March?!?!) in Kentucky, MO, MS, AL, TN, KT, GA and OH (forgive me if I missed anyone). Is everyone OK/accounted for? :(
Another forum I'm on has a sticky "map" of where all the members are, it was handy to check in on affected members (we still haven't heard from one :( ) but this forum is a bit bigger and I don't have a good feel of where everyone lives.
Anyone you can think of we're missing? Everyone OK?

We got lucky here in Lexington, KY. Unfortunately, those around us weren't as lucky.

So far we've got 20 deaths in the state (mostly east of us but also north and south). And yeah, the little girl in Indiana who's entire family was killed died yesterday. :(

To add insult to injury for those that are dealing with property and family losses, we've now got 3-4 inches of snow in the ground after last night. WTF, Mother Nature??? She's got a sick sense of humor, apparently! :spank:

Hope everyone else out there is ok!

I have seen the Sky news footage. In a million years I could not no what this is like to endure.
I Hope that the community can rally as one and the Gov release timely funds to enable a speedy return to life. My thoughts also go out to the many families devastated by the deaths of their loved ones.

Was not bad where I live in Birmingham, sorry for all the folks north of here is had it so bad. My brother was telling me that I24 near Chattanooga was closed because of power lines down across the it. Has been a lot of news coverage about wearing some type of helmet when bad weather hits, bicycle, motorcycle, football, hard hat etc.

we are just so fragile and insignificant compared to mother nature's power.

I feel for all the people affected by all these tragedies.

LOL...while it may sound silly now, there was one point when it started getting bad here that I looked over and saw one of my helmets sitting there and thought "maybe I should put that on if things start to go haywire". :thumbup:

Hey, it couldn't hurt! :D
