Oklahoma tornado

[Cary Kollins]

Man oh man. Watching the news now, apparently a mile-wide tornado directly hit an elementary school where 75 children were bracing for the storm.

Miles of homes just leveled. Devastating.

No reported fatalities at the moment, but apparently first responders are having difficulty arriving to the scenes. Could be real bad.

I watched it from beginning to end. Words cannot explain. They said at one point that it was a little over 2 miles wide. My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Moore OK.

They just said they pulled a couple of kids out of the elementary school, alive. Also hit a high school. Unreal the damage.

Hearing at least 51 dead so far.

As a new dad I've realized how true this is. Me and my wife were just completely devastated by the Sandy Hook shootings.

Major props to Kevin Durant for his donation. He's such a class act and hopefully not just a role model for kids but also for his peers.

times like these I'm glad I "have to put up with winter" instead!

 

very sad.  Sounds like the majority of the dead are kids out of that elementary school
