| Tornado's hit NW Arkansas As some of you know we had some severe weather lately. A few weeks ago there were several tornado warnings issued here. And two or three confirmed touchdowns. Yesterday I was finally able to go and look at some of the destruction that one of them had done. I took some pics that I wanted to share with you. It has made me realize how quickly we can loose everything. Thank God that we had good weather men here to warn everyone ahead of time! Thanks to them there were no deaths and very few injuries. Judging by these pics everyone was EXTREMELY LUCKY. You will notice in the pic of the two vehicles, up in the tree right above them, you can't tell that well by the pic angle. But there is side of a baby crib, and the bumper pad! That was the scariest part of it all. From the other side it look like a cross. Some of the houses have nothing left but the foundations! Thank God that everyone that lived here is fine. Please keep them in your prayers.

| Wow those pics are unbelievable! The night that Arkansas was hit by that tornado, we got over 100 tornados here in MO! It was so scary, we had 3 touchdown in my town. Nobody was killed but there was alot of damage! Im not ready for this weather, I dread this time of the year!

| Im sorry to hear about that. We were in Springfield the day before they hit here. And when we came out of the bass pro shop the tornado syrens started going off, it was scary! And I know that another tornado hit Branson. It just seemed like there for a few weeks they were coming like crazy! It's been a crazy start to tornado season! Lets just hope that its not too bad!

Donating YT 14K Club Member | OMG! Those pictures are crazy! Tornadoes are the only storm that really scares me. You have zero notice to plan for these. Glad no one was hurt!

I could imagine! It was really scary for me, and I have been through quite a few. I could not imagine being im a strange place, by myself and having to experience one! Bless her heart. I think that it was worse in Missouri than it was here!

| How horrible! Thank heavens no one was seriously hurt! It must be so traumatic to go through something like that....I can't imagine. I complain about all the snow we get up here, but I'll try not to do that anymore as it's really the worst weather that we have to deal with....and it's nothing compared to tornados or hurricanes. We rarely get tornados in the summer here and when we do they're only very, very small. Definitely will keep all of those people in my prayers tonight. |
