The images on the news is horrific. I hope people are safe but I fear there will be many dead. I heard one report they were pulling kids from under cars inside a school.
200 MPH winds.................??

Damage will be severe, just hope loss of life is minimal......

Early reports are that up to 2 dozen children are dead after their school was hit.
Moore Okla has come in first and second in the strongest winds .

What a shame! what a tragedy.

Please don't compare this to anything that could have been avoided by sensible regulation...
My prayers go out to the victims and survivors.

Kevin Durant just pledged One million dollars in aid. Very cool of him.

Very sad. The healing will take a long time. Unlike a lot of things where we want to feel we are in control, when nature decides to play rough it reminds us how fragile the strongest humans really are. Many prayers for all the victims and families.

I will agree the hail storms here are and can be deadly but where i grew up we went from snow storms and blizzards to the worst storms

Thank you. Contribution sent.
Glad the numbers are lower than first reported. Must have been the liberal news.
