Hoping all are Forum members in the mid west are okay after these storms. Good luck gang!

Yeah, I was thinking of Jim K and Dane W when the news report said Kansas was hit. Hope everyone made it through fine.

Yeah, I heard Harveyville, KS was hit hard, that's only about 60 miles from Lawrence, where Jim K. lives. Dane's in that general area too. I hope they're both OK...

Yeah, I'm fine. I didn't even know about any tornadoes until I got a phone call from my mom this morning. All we had was a little bit of rain, lots of lightning, and some wind. I heard about Harveyville on the 3:00 news this afternoon. Thanks for the thoughts.

Good to hear! Yeah, in terms of a tornado, 60 miles is a huge distance... unless you're in it's path...

Glad you're okay, Jim! Geez, tornadoes already?!

Glad to hear this, Jim.

Dane?

Yeah, it's a bit early, to be sure. But the truth is they can happen any time of year. The most usual time is the spring of the year, heaviest in May and June. But like earthquakes in California, you learn to deal with it. Just one of those things....

The school where I teach spent 90 minutes in the hall on Wednesday, as the tornado sirens kept going off. We're supposed to get another round coming through today.

Good Luck Matt!

Indiana got hit hard,, pretty scarey here in western Ohio for a while as well. Hope all the Hoosiers are OK.

Thanks. We got lucky in Louisville today. However, areas just north and south got hit. My wife has uncles in Henryville, IN, and thankfully they are ok, although the area is in various states of destruction.

Hope everybody conencted with the RRF stays safe and sound !
The various news reports are pretty grim ...

Just been watching this unfold on the news here! Hope everyone keeps safe.
Crazy world at the moment, as we're into flood season again!
NorthEast Victoria and SouthEast New South Wales are underwater!
