Glad to hear all you guys are ok. I'll be saying a few extra prayors for everyone in your area.

Crazy crazy stuff. Watching the news last night and they were like 5 tornados at the same time spread all over the state. Looks like a war zone. Glad to hear all my buddies are ok.

Really glad you guys are all doing okay, absolutely tragic events

Keep in mind, if you're poor you can always give blood - every little bit helps.

I've seen a lot of aerial tornado damage over the years, but nothing like that, the carnage just keeps going. I got about 5 mins in and had to stop watching.

I'm headed to the blood bank for my lunch break today

Thanks guys. Our house was not hit thankfully although it was only about a mile (the way the bird fly's) from the house.

My mother-in-law's house is messed up but she was very lucky. Her house was the last one with a roof in her area.

Here is the link to my FB page with the pics if anyone wants to see them.

Thanks again guys for all the text's and calls checking on us.

All I can say is

I have never seen a tornado with my own eyes...

foproy · 04-29-2011, 10:36 AM

i have been near 4 in my lifetime, and fortunately this was not one of them. i wish everyone who was directly affected by this the best of luck in recovering.

Benzbuildr · 04-30-2011, 06:12 AM

Right now the death toll stands at 254 people in the state of Alabama.

they have barely scratched the surface in searching for people.

Rockcrawler · 05-01-2011, 11:05 PM

I heard Pleasant Grove is worse.

Also, google maps has a before and after in our area.

Rockcrawler · 05-06-2011, 03:24 PM

Anyone have any personal contacts with someone that works for FEMA?

nascarkeith · 05-06-2011, 10:13 PM

At the 4:19 mark you begin to see Alberta Elementary School. That is where my 6th graders went to K-5 grades. They had one student that did not make it. I have one that has staples in her head but that is the only injury in my class. Looking at that video is horrible but does not do it justice. We walked through that ruble trying to find our students the Monday after the tornado. It is by the grace of God that there weren't hundreds killed in that neighborhood alone.
