Scary Weekend

It was a very scary weekend for a great deal of central United States as tornadoes and straight line winds and wind sheer did a great deal of damage in many towns. I believe Oklahoma got hit the worst of all. I heard there were 120 tornadoes just this weekend and Oklahoma got hit the worst. However, Kansas and Nebraska also were hit as well. We got rain which we needed badly, however, the tornadoes went all around us and up to Minnesota. I haven't heard yet just how bad it was in Wisconsin but it was headed that way and to Chicago. Guess I will go watch some news now and see what happened there.

Oklahoma Ice Storm

Have you been watching the effects of the ice storm in Oklahoma and now it is in Kansas City and crept into Iowa too. Saw highway pictures of Des Moines and the streets looked pretty icy. I read a blog this morning and the gal had pictures of their home and how the trees were falling. One just missed her brother, who had been standing in that very spot just minutes before a huge tree came crashing down. Thousands are without light and heat. We can be very thankful we don't have that here but I really feel sorry for those without heat as it is very cold this time of year.
