Twisters rip across the Midwest and Southern part of the Country yesterday. My own tri-state area has seen 28 fatalities so far and many more wounded. Madisonville Indiana, a town of 1,900... Completely gone... Moscow, Ohio and Chrichton Kentucky, may be beyond repair. A newspaper from Jefferson City Missourri was found blowing along the street of Cincinnati, Ohio. One even jumped the river from Kentucky to Ohio. from pictures of this particular tornado you could see the smoke stacks of a nuclear power plant. Had it hit there instead... I don't even want to speculate...

In the South, Suuper cells produced several small tornados in the same place and at the same time wipping out miles of land in Alabama.

Our sirens went of a couple times and we wondered if it was happening to us... The worst we got was high wind and hail. We were lucky, and I am extremely thankful for that. However, others were not so lucky... My heart goes out to the families and individuals that lost loved ones and homes in this most recent sweep of storms. I applaud the rescue crews, repair teams and active hospital, police and fire crews that are helping these people through this disaster, I also applaud the everyday heros that stood up when the need was greatest and helped get people to saftey, search for survivors and opened their homes to those in need.

For those who may have been personally affected by this storm. Have hope.
