I got contact from my sis and she said everyone is okay down south. I am 60 miles away and we didn't get a single drop. I just don't understand it. I have pictures of the clouds. We are under tornado watch until Monday. Thank you for your prayers, if you are in the surrounding area please send water and supplies.
 
Prays go out to the people of Missouri & Arkansas. My son is currently taking shelter in Anderson,Mo. school. He was traveling back from the Topeaka race, with his girlfriend & her family.
 
My sisters house is pretty much gone but that doesn't matter to much right now, I wish my boss would come in tomorrow and decide to load up the skidsteers and head down.
 
yea, just a few weeks ago, some major tornadoes hit here. but they are worse, cause we are in the mountains, so you can not see them comming till it forms right over the ridge, and at that point it is too late. prayers sent
 
prayers sent, also keep praying Tuscaloosa, I got into some more areas today and it is still unbelieveable that thousands were not killed here. I didn't get any damage this time but the F-5 in April 8, 1998 got me.

They only had a five minute warning, I talked to my cousin Chris. He is an emt, he said they are over staffed at the moment which is good, but when everyone gets tired who will replace them? My brother is ex-Army, he got a few of his buddies together.. I got my usmc devildogs :D and a few cases of MRE's.. we are waiting to see if we cant get in on the clean up when everyone needs a break.
 
Prayers sent Jared, for your family and all those affected. Your help will be needed and appreciated.
