Hopefully all of our members in Oklahoma are OK? Jackie, Lynn?

I posted this on Team Chevelle.

She's fine, the tornado passed 2 miles north. She said it was so big, she didn't even realize it was a tornado at first!

One of my relatives lives in the Moore neighborhood that took the direct hit. Their house is completely gone. Luckily, no one was at home.

I will keep people updated with what I hear... </div></div>

And lastly, where the tornado first touched down is REALLY close to where they live.

I am glad that my relatives weren't home.

I just responded to a pm.

Here is my response:

Sad day. I fear lots of dead young ones before this is over. Approx 30 square miles of destruction.

Last night's tornado missed our house by about 1/4 mile. Wasn't much damage here in Edmond. Most happened as it tracked east. We were out of power for about 9 hours, but I cranked up the generator, so we were fine. We also have a safe room, so were in no physical danger.

We are watching the grandkids today (my son in in England right now) and I decided to stay home. We watched it unfold live, and couldn't believe the destruction.

Just heard from my cousin. Missed her son's house by one block. I have several friends in Moore, but so far, am unable to contact them. Most communications are out.
Thanks for the concern. Glad to hear Jacquie &amp; Glenn are OK.

Life's problems we all face seem miniscule to what these people are facing. I can't even imagine losing family members, let alone my house etc .

The latest from Jacquie did not sound good when I checked on her friend's kids. MANY prayers are being sent to everyone there.
