for someone who’s only been here a few days you’ve got a big mouth! These events are important for many of us here who have family and friends in these areas.

Well darn. I was going to ping the adm mod and ask to review and possibly put it back in breaking since it looks like it's going to be a rough night. I can't get a screen name that will work though. You been here long enough to know how to ping him/her for me?

We spent 20 minutes in basement here in Saginaw, MO. We had hail and lots of water, with some flooding, but escaped the worst. There are at least 3 fatalities a few miles southwest of us.

I was sitting here thinking the same thing about the person and his picture he put up! We are on the same page.

These are deadly storms being set off by a cold front that is moving through. Now that it is dark, they can come out of nowhere.

These are nasty storms that are pretty widespread since it hit Pitcher before going into MO and outside McAlister before going into MO. The local people are saying they are an F-3 right now which means winds over well over 100.

Stay safe and watch for incoming storms because these are nasty.

This storm looks like it’s not anywhere near over and is on the move. Would you review and consider leaving it in breaking tonight?
Thanks

Just because someone questions what is defined as breaking news? Wow.

Thanks. I wasn’t putting “in” on the “adm”. I guess I need more practice, huh?’)
