Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | 16 confirmed dead, 2 of them children. I don't think it was as bad up around NJJ, but they still had tornado warnings all up through there and probably got some wind damage at the very least. |

Location: Do I hear Banjos? | The tornado passed to the east of us a few miles. We drove through where it crossed Hwy 10 on the way in to work this morning. It cust a pretty big path even back this way whisch is where it basically got started. There were huge trees ripped up and tossed down...but amazingly the two horse properties there had all buildings standing. Fences and every single tree gone. Its crazy how a tornado can do that...total destruction just inches from an intact house.
It went through some of the exact same areas that the one did in 2011. They had just about finished re-building a school in Vilonia...it's completely destroyed once again. Seems like a lot of casualties. Just so sad and scary. I really feel for those folks. |

The ones in AR should have had warnings. I was watching continuous coverage on the local news (also broadcasted to fm radio) and they and the NWS were on top of things. While watching a storm chaser dash cam tho, the chaser stopped before the spot where the tornado crossed I40, and people were steadily driving by him right towards it, completely oblivious. |

Location: Do I hear Banjos? | I saw that video too. I couldn't believe people were driving past that guy as if they were oblivious! It was Pitch Black! They had to know something was bad up ahead.
I hear this morning that 3 people were killed just east of us in Paron. That's about where the thing started I think. They likely had little warning...but the radio and all TV were on top of it quick and had tracking and warnings out. |
