 Better be glad y'all ain't in Alabama
Over 150 deaths, more than that missing. 26 confirmed dead in my hometown, over 20 more missing. 1 tornado went from 1 state line to the next 184 miles and was over a mile wide most of that path. Pray for the families.

 Re: Better be glad y'all ain't in Alabama
My son was a lake martin yesterday. He's got facebook photos of the devastation 100 yards from the lake house. He said it was worse than a hurricane for about 20 mins. All are ok. 3 deaths close by.

 Re: Better be glad y'all ain't in Alabama
Yes it sucks, I've been working in most of eastern arkansas for the past week helping to restore power and just arrived in helena and it is tore up pretty good here too. For 3 nights in a row all those storms passed over our motel in forest city arkansas luckily not a tornado dropped on us but they were a little too close for comfort. Hot springs arkansas got hit real bad, heard its the worst they have ever seen it there.

Worked with disaster relief efforts today. Must say, folks are really pulling together. I actually have faith in humanity again.

 Re: Better be glad y'all ain't in Alabama
RIP to all the folks that didn't make it, and prayers to all those who did. That system touched a tornado down about a half mile from my house, I ain't never had one that close to me in my life, very shitty feeling for sure watching the news telling us to get down that there is a tornado on the ground in my tiny little town of 2000.
Hope all you fellers made out alright, no real damage here, just a couple trees.
