Prayers for all those across the heartland affected by these fierce tornados. Supposedly the Corvette factory was hit pretty badly.

It’s expected to arrive at 2PM today. Badly needed rain. Our issue is fires. Tornados are extremely rare here

Hurm. Heading my way.

I wonder if the Corvette museum is ok?

The storms swept through Bowling Green, Kentucky, near the Tennessee border, tearing off roofs of homes and flinging debris into roadways. The GM Corvette Assembly Plant and the nearby Corvette Museum sustained light damage. A semitrailer was overturned and pushed against a building just across the street.

Though the Corvette plant did not sustain much damage it looks like there has been widespread, significant damage throughout the state. Unfortunately many lost their lives and businesses including about 50 workers who died at a candle factory.

This is terrible.
