    I am praying for everyone. Mr. T has family in MO and AR so it's always stressful hearing about the storms there.

    Well, ladies. I hope anyone else in MO is staying safe tonight. The news is saying that we have several hours of severe weather left.

    Yep, here in Kansas City there were 5+ tornados earlier. FH and I were out getting smoothies when we saw funnel clouds and decided to make a pit stop at my parent's house instead of going straight home. They have a basement and we live in a 2nd story apartment. Turned out fine tho, the clouds were moving FAST.

    Everyone affected please take care of yourself! Even if that means hunkering down in a dingy cold dark basement or cave out in the woods for a bit!

    I'm so glad that here in Oregon we get...rain. The worst is occasional flooding.

    Stay safe!

    I grew up in tornado alley. They can be scary, luckily I've never been in one, seen many though.

    Just remember, things are replaceable, people are not. Stay safe!

    I've been seeing them but I now live far enough south that we don't get them really at all.

    I agree with you that you be kept safe & that your loved ones and your lives (homes, belongings) be safe too!

    Remember that God is soveriegn and that EVERYTHING that can be named has to take heed to His voice! I pray that His angels take charge of you and protect you. (ps 91)

    Lots of Midwestern brides around!

     

    @futuremrssteel - My mom is a counceller in Wichita (lives in Burrton). She currently has my wedding dress because she's driving to the destination wedding and I didn't want to fly with it. She took it to work with her yesterday to "keep it safe". I told her if her house was hit by a tornado my wedding dress would be the least of my concerns, but I know she was doing the "mom thing". You Wichita and nearby folks where in a pretty prime target area yesterday! I'm glad nothing happened down there!

    In the media    June 29, 2013   Indiana, but wedding in St. Louis

    95% of the people I know are in St. Louis and I keep calling to make sure they are alive. And all the Facebook posts worry me. I'm only 4 hours west, and the storms keep breaking up and going around us. But they are saying storms over night. Dear storms, happen after 3:30 a.m., so the boy can get to work safely.

    Well, everythings been quiet here for a while now. We're supposed to have some good storms here again early in the morning. Hopefully just thunderstorms.

    Saw this news article on yahoo. I thought it was pretty interesting.
