Probably a good day to Golf.

Prayers for all dealing with the aftermath of the tornadoes, especially for those in Tuscaloosa and Birmingham.

Will the magnitude of this tragedy force Hussein’s handlers to make him show up and see the devastation? They have already told him to sign a disaster declaration...or, will he follow his normal mode and just go golfing and fund raising?
To: LRS
May God rest the souls of those lost, and bring comfort to those who remain.

Even worse, it's the Bible Belt. Hussein is probably overjoyed.

April 3/4, 1974 had been the benchmark for me. This even blows (no pun intended) that storm outbreak away. This is Greensburg, Kansas multiplied. Unbelievable disaster...

Probably a good day to Golf. It's a tragic day for Obama - the same system that devastated the south will trigger thunderstorms in the DC area, so the Secret Service will undoubtedly have to break the news to TOTUS that he can't go on the golf course today.
Oh, the humanity!

This has to be among the most deadly spate of tornadoes since the infamous Super Outbreak that killed between 315 and 330 persons on April 3-4, 1974.

Prayers out for those to the west, SW of NC. We were hammered the week before last, but not as widespread, damaging or loss of life as this this.
To: DollyCali
Prayers for them. Hope they made it...

The thing of it for me, is that in 1974, we were ignorant when it came to these supuer outbreaks, which raised the death toll. With tech advances, people yesterday had warning, but the size and endurance of these storms was unreal.
