Please remove from breaking news. Thanks
Those are very cool. :)
Except for the tornado watch part of course.....
My daughter (Russellville) said the temp went from 79 to 46 today once the storm passed thru. Prayers up for those who suffer a loss due to this storm.
Watching the Weather channel coverage. In Memphis and hoping we only get rain.
That same storm left us with quite an ice storm in Kansas. All the fruit trees were blooming...all frozen now. I pray for the best for those who were in the tornado’s path.
Great sign btw!!!
