Wow this is so horrible, Parts of Arkansas and IIinois, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky were all hit with tornadoes last night at least 50 dead in Kentucky and more excepted to be found dead..

And now up to 70 believed to be dead.

I believe this is the City of Mayfield, Ky that so many were killed.. 

That all rolled through E TX. What I got was rain and a little wind. Nort of me got a little worse but these storm often cross into LA and increase in strength. This damage is unbelievable. Prayers up for everyone involved. I am very blessed that it wasn't bad here. 

Fortunately, it passed just east of us. It did hit a nursing home here in NE AR (Leachvile - Truman) and killed a couple of people.

I didnt even know that the weather was that bad for all these states, I knew storms were possible but not like what happen, these poor people. I hope all the BB's that are in these states are all ok.. I looked to see how far you were Norma from these storms and saw that they were east of you, so horrible for the hard hit areas..

Does anybody Facebook/friends with Sarah Vittur (BlazeFameHarley)I dont know if she still gos by Vittur since she got Divorce from Dusty, but my last address that I have of hers is in Henderson Ky and thats where the Tornadoe did alot of damage too, can somebody check and see about her. 

Just got a message back from Sarah ...... She lives in Hawesville (Hancock County) near Ohio county. It destroyed 2 or 3 towns there and was headed straight for them.

"Hey! We are ok! We were very lucky that the one heading our way turned before it got to us! We had no damage but we have found pieces of insulation, tar paper, and papers in our yard from over an hour and a half away."

Thank you Norma, Glad to hear that shes ok.. I think about her at times, shes always been a sweet girl on here, well young woman now,,,

I've been trying to figure out where Portland Arkansas is, is it close to where the Tornadoes did the damage? I cant find it on the map, one of our BB's lives in Portland and trying to figured out where in the heck it is.

Portland, Arkansas is 2 hours south of Little Rock and just a bit to the east.  If you type "Portland, Arkansas map" into your search bar (like you would for going to a website) it will pop up.

Thank you!!! Such a Itty Bitty town, no wonder I could not find it..

Several bad storms in Norhtern KS, NB, IW last night & fires in western KS is everyone there ok?   

Gail and Dave come to mind, they are in KS, have you talked to them yet to see if everything is OK there. I know the City/town they are in but I dont feel right posting where they live. 

If you want to donate;

Kentucky Tornado Updates (kentuckyhorse.org)

Thanks for that.   I think we should give all our ad revenue for a week to a tornado fund - any more suggestions?

We are 90 percent Okie now and only visiting our place in Kansas to keep prepping it to sell.   I know west of us got hit hard but our place is fine.

If we could find an individual who needs help I think that would be super fun.   Surprise them with some cash.  

In the past we have used ad revenue to give to Samaritians Purse and we could do that again but it would be cool if would find someone directly to help.

This is my county. I'm 20 miles from Dawson Springs. I used to live less than 5 miles from there. I know every person killed there. 

After tornado destroyed her town, this new UK grad met the president. Then he called her. (yahoo.com)

This is really a kind thought but"

To me that would be really hard to do as in just picking one person (individual) to give money (donatings) too when so many have lost so much in these tornadoes, I would feel really guilty when familys loved one were lost and many have no homes to go to, I could not just choose one person, but thats just me. 

I agree. So many suffering it would be impossible to select one or a few. As the press goes away people are left with the fact that they have no homes or even basic supplies. The outpouring here has been flabergasting. It's overwhelming the support from all over the country. Hopkins County is now asking that donations be money because they don't a place to put supplies that are coming in by the truckload. That's a great problem to have though. The volunteers from everywhere is just outstanding. People from many states away coming in and bringing heavy equiipment and getting right to work and won't think of taking a penney fror their work or even living expenses. It's just amazing. 

I've seen Dawson Springs. Word is Mayfield is worse. I can't see how but I'll take their word for it. I have a friend in Mayfield that no one had been able to contact. We feared the worst. But he contacted us yesterday. He had no power or cell service. he finally got power yesterday and was able to email. He lost his business but not his home. He says he won't rebuild his business. 

Thanks for that update.

Can you help us find a family that needs a cash donation?  It would be cool if we could find someone who can't get assistance and needs help.

Thanks!
