Last night was really a night of nasty weather. We were surrounded by 16 tornados here in Arkansas.

storms caused, it sickened me. It went thru Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia............I think all the way to the coast. Arkansas is a small state, and when you have sixteen of them going all at the same time, it makes for some very tense weather reporters! We just had some branches down, a lot luckier than others! 
I was thinking about you guys out there went I saw it on TV. I was near one in South Dakota. The sirens went off at night and we were with others in a big parking area behind Wall Drug. Most got up and drove off. We had no idea where it was, which way it was going or coming and really not much of and idea where we were, so us and another couple stayed put. Never saw it or hear it, just a lot of lightning and thunder, but no cyclone. Made us nervous for sure in the RV. We had one come thru here about 20 years ago about 30 miles from here and it really ripped the place up. There was a air museum there and it really flung them planes all over the place. Big military stuff and ripped down the building. I remember we drove up there to look it over and these big Sikorsky Sky Crane helicopters were layig upside down all over the place. The looked like big dragon fly bugs laying there with their feet in the air. I ended up working on setting the steel for the new building later that year. They are rare in these parts. Guess it don't get warm enough in the summer. Do you guys have a shelter for them to go into?

I am glad to hear your all safe.We also got it here -no tornados but thunderstorms with lots of rain and flash flooding. My heart goes out to the poor people who lost loved ones and their homes.I have helped clean up after 2 tornados in my life that resulted in widespread destuction and loss of life. I helped carry bodys out from one.....I am still haunted by some of the things I saw.
Greg?? Is everyone ok??
the hill our house sits on. We have a large hall way with an interior bathroom, and that is where we go when the sirens go off, with some mattresses. I would love to have an underground shelter though. Maybe that's something we need to think about more serious about, especially now hat we are getting a bit older!
