Did you announce this on some Facebook groups? Might be a good idea

Dad and Mom are safe. My sisters house is pretty much gone. The local congregation had them out of the house before the next big wave. It’s pretty bad. I’m driving back from Texas right now so I don’t now about our house.

I would think that the church members will be all over this, thankfully

@Nomad74 tell Boyle that he sends Lee $100k or more to help rebuild, I'll let him back on.


Its the least he could do.....

My heart goes out to Lee and Justin and their families. I will keep them in my prayers.

 

[Desk Jockey]

That's terrible! Above all at least it's only property and no lives lost.

From what I have heard so far, there look to be many fatalities.

You gotta tell him. You guys go way back. I got my own set of issues. ******* cosmetology school!

Awful to hear Lee. Hope you and the family are able to recover and are safe.

Those of us want to help just need to know what we can do when it gets to that point. DM me here, or call me at 412-414-9129 when you have a clearer idea. I know its too early for you to tell us anything just yet.

You just be careful getting there.

They found their dog a mile down the road alive and well. Pretty amazing. Super happy about that. The cats also survived.

 

[Kenny Hayes]

That super cell stayed on the ground for 250 mi. in quad states. A record!

 

[hogjowl]

Yeah, in 4 states too

 

[DAT]

Brutal.

 

[Kenny Hayes]

Yeah, in 4 states too

Idiot

I saw the Bowling Green Corvette factory roof caught fire. I hope the National Corvette Museum is okay.

The remains of Dads shop. It’s kinda funny how both Dad ,Pemberton and me saw this pic and thought“is the RX20 the must rugged carpet cleaning tool ever built?”
Gotta love that he can laugh about it. He really doesn’t care about the stuff. I know I’ve heard that my entire life, how only people matter and stuff doesn’t. But man he is not kidding. Totally fine with losing most of what he had, on the day he turned 70. (I mean we don’t celebrate birthdays but you gotta admit that’s ironic).
