Saw this on the news this morning and I'm just hoping all our Oklahoma ninjas are safe and sound.

This is so sad news, I feel for the familys that lost their young ones, and to everyone that lost some1 May they rest in peace
We do occasionally. Most of them are so small they don't make the news. There was quite a big one in italy a year or so ago I think. I've personally only seen one. I was on the beach in Great Yarmouth in Norfolk when a 400ft tall waterspout popped up out at sea. Can't have been more than a mile or two away, with golf ball sized hail.
It's now being reported that the death toll is considerably less than originally reported, but there were still many people including children killed in this terrible natural disaster. My thoughts are with those who lost their loved ones in this tragedy.

Hearts and thoughts go to all those affected by those tornados somehow.
I think there was one in Italy two weeks ago that caused some noticeable damage.

I hadn't heard the death toll had gone up again, but considering the shear devastation it's amazing anyone survived.
Just seen an amazing interview with an old lady who had lost her dog during the storm, and the tv crew spotted the poor thing in the rubble. The joy on her face when she realised he was still alive was really moving.

You're not going to the Chelsea v Manchester City exhibition match on friday, are you? ^^
UK news were reporting earlier that the death toll had been revised down from 91 to 24. Not sure if that is still accurate. Apparently some people may have been reported dead twice so it's all very confusing.

Well hopefully the storm system will clear by then. If not, just be vigilant and drive safely.
Another one hit Oklahoma, now claiming at least 16 dead. Among them where stormchasers Tim Samaras, his son Paul Samaras, and longtime chase partner Carl Young. I remember them from the Discovery show: Stormchasers, great people. It's sad that they are gone now. Although i live in the Netherlands, my sister lives in Oklahoma West City, so it's a scary thing every time.
