Wow, just think of how we get more spoiled each generation. Now people think they need a 5 bedroom/4 bath house with a private pool and they have two children.

They had some rough weather in Iowa today and the Twin Cities had an awful time. So far one person lost their life in Mn. Someone just posted that there are still 20 people missing over there.

It has been the most terrible year for tornadoes. 7 people were killed in Iowa, and 1 in Minnesota. 100 people have died in the US so far this year because of tornadoes.

people talk about how they don't know their neighbors, people don't share.......and all they do is gripe when Oklahoma shares her tornadoes with other states......seems some people just aren't happy, regardless of what you do.

I'm just grateful Mustang has been skipped over so far. Even though this is our first tornado season here, it does seem a lot worse than I remember hearing about on the news other years. Let's hope the worst is over.

Can you imagine the force needed to blow a tanker off its wheels?

Yea, and my gripe is that you share your tornadoes but not your warm weather. It's supposed to hit a whopping 59 degrees here today and tomorrow.

Peggy, I saw that this morning. Eight people is such a huge amount in just one day. I think seven of them were in Ia. and the other in Mn. Did you see the pics on the Weather Channel? Just sad.

My question is. How baddly constructed are those thing when the main body is on its side and the wheels and axles are still on the tracks?

That can't be good!
