OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - At least 16 people were killed on Saturday in Missouri and Oklahoma after tornadoes swept through the area, authorities in the two states said.
Hope everyone's okay...

The tornado actually killed 12 people.
That was the same tornado that Democrats politicized the war about, saying that the Kansas National Guard didn't have any equipment to help out because supposedly it was all in Iraq, which of course was a lie.
I wonder if Democrats will be politicizing this latest round of tornadoes in a similar manner.
Amen

A bad night indeed.
I would assume so. When all of life is a political game, nothing is beyond politics.
Maybe that is what happened to those extra 7 states he was talking about the other day.
The tornado got em..
When I left KS for CA many years ago, everybody said I was crazy to move to the land of earthquakes.
God, please be with the grieving families. Ease their pain.
Pitcher, OK is (was) a town of about 300 in extreme NE Oklahoma.
Per reports on the Tulsa TV news, the twister was 2/3 mile wide and took out about 20 blocks of the town (abt. 2 miles).
Most of the destruction was in residential areas. The downtown area did not get hit. The twister hit about 5:30 p.m.
This system is just pushing across Mid-TN. Kinda intense.
Prayers for the victims & their families. And for all the people in these areas.
That’s what we heard, 20 blocks of town, just gone.
Not good.
Just now heard 16 dead.
Yes, prayers for them, and their loved ones...
Looks like we are under a tornado warning again. Tornado spotted crossing I65 just south of Huntsville which means it is probably headed my way since I live in SE HSV. It just popped up without warning.
Hope you were missed by any tornados..I have a girlfriend from high school that lives in Huntsville too, hope you are all okay, I haven’t looked at the tv for the weather updates..
Amen
