In Kansas we also had one town south of Topeka (not near me) that was leveled on Tuesday night that appears to have been the start of many tornados that followed. I hope all of the B-F Planet peeps,family and friends in the Southlands are safe and my thoughts are with all of you.

Western Kentucky checking in. It was somewhat brutal there for a bit. Prison was on lockdown. However, all is well, and while we had some very violent weather, no tornadoes.

Harveyville, ks actually had no warning at all. Due to very unfortunate circumstances their warning system was never activated. They literally didn't know until the tornado was on top of them. 1 death, 11 injuries and about 40% of the small town, which is about 250 ppl have damaged-destroyed homes. I have a good friend who list their home in this mess. I know the ppl there can use all of the prayers and thoughts they can get!

Eastern and Southeastern KY (where I am) got hit badly by tornadoes this evening. Morgan County was one of the areas hit on Wednesday by an EF2 and got hit again tonight. By at least an EF3 tonight was about a 1/2-mile wide, National Guard are being sent in. Destroyed the downtown of the town of West Liberty. I think about another 5 or 6 hit in our area.

One county in the area (Laurel County) has 4 deaths.

I was fortunate in that my county didn't get hit. But we were on a warning for about 2 hours about 4 hours ago. And it's storming badly right now...1-2 inch diameter hail.

You don't hear about tornadoes much here mainly because it's the mountains. Tornadoes in the mountains are scary because they just bounce around.

We were fortunate here in my immediate area because they closed and cancelled things before the storms started. It's a Friday night and the weekends are the main time people come out around here from the hollers, so by closing things it kept people safe and able to stay protected from the bad rains here. Flash flooding and mudslides in my immediate area.

Please, if you live in the path of these storms, don't go out in them. Take shelter.

Default thank you !!!!!!

Gaea thank you so much for well wishes and genuine concern . You are a class act friend . I was thinking a lot about what you posted regarding donations to red cross verses churches . Red cross is a good place for donating blood for the packed red cells and fresh fffp and platelets ( please do not donate if you are a chronic anemic or have low bp or the jov or titis ) no they screen all that stuff . Seriously if people could do that there that's great. However , like yourself I am a fan of donating clothes , glasses , watches , foods etc to churches . I used to donate to united way from my paycheck until that org embezzlement scandal and I no longer do that . It's humbling to live in the region I do because until katrina , our area was the largest poverty stricken and now we are 2nd in the states but we are the first still to be the most illiterate sadly . There are documentarys out there about appalachian life in the ky, wv , southern Ohio region that will bring some tears in your eyes for sure . People don't realize the severity of life here until they see documentarys. There is an old famous saying here , that was shown in the movie coal minors daughter that goes " around here you have 3 choices for work .. coal mine , sell moonshine , or move on down the line ". Sadly kids drop out of school in the 8th , 9th grade to work in farms and various under table jobs to help support their families . That still occurs here . There really are mountain people here who stay in the mountains and live there secluded from the towns and those poor kids don't even know what a school is . There are needy in your area surely . Nobody can ever donate enough , that's impossible with all the needs in the world but sometimes going to a store and buying an extra milk and some baby food , and cereal or what not and drop it on a doorstep and knock on the door and leave . These folks here are poor and humbling . They would give their last extra shirt to someone in need . That is the heart of a lot of poverty people. They don't know what its like to have anything extra so if they have something extra they will give it to their neighbors. If you are good at making quilts and all that stuff , make something and send it to a church to give to people . these are some suggestions darling . Thank you again for this thread friend ..... Sincerely RNguy
