Wow! That’s awesome.
WAPI in B’ham was raising money for a family of 4 who died.
Thank you to all who have helped in any way.
Another ping to the state list.
This reminds me of that April in 2011 or 2012 when over 200 tornadoes raced through the state. We were in our home and a few college students, friends of my daughters, took shelter with us.
Last year (2018) was the first year in history without an EF4 or EF5 tornado. The media didn’t tell anyone about that.
I still remember the smell of soil in the air.
Lived through the biggy in the 70’s. One jumped over our house.
I fear tornadoes more than I fear hurricanes. Although, hurricanes can spawn tornadoes.
Yep.
Wow. What a first-class act and anonymous, and all. God Alone sees and is pleased with hidden charity. A great way to start the season of Lent!
Its heartbreaking. The family that lost 7 members must be devestated. We can only pray that God will pour down blessings on that land and that once again it will bloom.
Very nice thing to do. One less worry for grieving families.
Wow, thanks. Not a tree standing, except for a stump here and there. Homes razed to the foundation. Terrible. Generous of these companies. And they’re obviously not seeking any kind of recognition that would benefit them directly. Have to admire that.
My goodness!
At about 1:43, it looks like even some of the stones and rocks of the walkway to the (gone) front porch of that house (gone) were swept away!
Down here, I always remember the smell of pine. Lots of pine trees in this part of Alabama...
When they tear up in the wind, it smells like Christmas.
Doesn’t feel like it, though...
I agree! I grew up in Kansas and was absolutely terrified of them as a kid. I’d still be worried now, but as a kid it always seems like they’re coming straight at you and there’s nothing you can do. I know better now. So I feel especially bad for the children, ‘cause I know what it’s like.
When the 19 Prescott Arizona Hot Shots were killed in the 2013 Yarnell Hill fire, my company paid for all of the funerals. I was very moved and grateful for what my company did and still am.
There are so many private sector companies who go beyond greedy corporate profits and provide generous help to those in need. A nasty stupid socialist like Occasional Cortex knows nothing about this, and if she did, she wouldnt care.
Downright creepy to see them stripped bare like match sticks. Looks like another planet.
Exactly. What a twit! Heaven help us! When is the American voter going to wake up? Oh, yeah, I forgot. Half of them aren’t even American anymore - at least in spirit, or in blood.
I just wish we had the leadership this country deserves.
Wow, thanks. Not a tree standing, except for a stump here and there. Homes razed to the foundation. Terrible.

True, but the path is narrow compared to something like a hurricane.
