Thanks Upsedaisy.
It appears we are going to have more storms today (third day in a row) though they are not projected to be as severe as those of the last two days.
This last year we have recieved minor earthquake damage to our home, minor hail damage on multiple occasions, unparalleled destructive heat, and unprecedented killing frost in May. Our water reservoirs are drying up, the worst one at 20 percent of capacity.
We have in essence a one party state government. Folks argue as to whether all this is God's will, or man's will.
Having said all that it is amazing how folks here unite to face disasters such as this.
OKR,
Jo beat me to it--thanks for your quick response. Glad to know you and your family are safe. Thought of you as soon as the news broke this afternoon.
Thank you Jo. We live northside OKC. We are fine. We got 1.4 inches of rain in twenty minutes, and a lot of nickle sized hail along with it. We are about six, or seven miles north of the path of this ef-4, or ef-5 tornado.
It is heart breaking that so many innocent children died. The folks of Oklahoma all grieve tonight.
