Tornado's
Well, many of you may have heard, we were hit by tornado's last night. I am from Dodge City, which is about 40 miles from Greensburg, Kansas. The tornado's completely destroyed Greensburg, a town of only about 2000 people.
I have been up all night helping the victims because I am a Red Cross volunteer. I took in two of the displaced (related) families until they figure out what they are going to do.
If anyone wants to see some of the pictures I snapped, you can view them on my site in the forums under the thread titled "tornado's". Preliminary reports estimate this an F5 on the Fajita Scale. I have lived in Tornado Alley all my life, but I have never seen anything like this. This was so powerful it pulled trees out of the ground and stripped the bark right off the branches.
So far, 11 are known dead. The injured list is topping 50 as of late.
The tornado's are making a repeat performance as we speak. It's going to be a long night, I'm afraid.
We welcome all your prayers.
