Tornadoes

Hoopz:
Anybody affected by the recent storms?  I know in Southern Indiana we have a few members (Hunk_4th, tta583, etc) and I think JackTucky is somewhere around there too but I don't recall exactly.  I may have him confused with someone else...  Checking to see if everyone is ok.

Pretty tragic situation.

Le Chuck:
My family was living in Joplin during the 2011 F5 that wiped out half the town, they came out alright but Joplin hasn't recovered yet.  They ended up moving to Branson and just got hit last week.  Again no injuries but they are getting pretty sick of living in the path of destruction. 

TopJimmyCooks:
Out here on the right coast it's hurricanes, but I really feel for the tornado victims.  They're so concentrated and violent compared to many storm types.  Glad to hear everyone's OK so far in the BYOAC community. 

My little bright side - due to our weak hurricane last year- Irene - I got my 20 year old, worn out roof reshingled mostly under an insurance claim.  Probably the first time I feel like Insurance has helped me beyond the bare minimum they had to do by law.  They waived depreciation, bless their pointy little heads.  Makes me feel a little better about paying an extra $120/month versus inland homeowners for government mandated wind and hail coverage. 

Nothing helps when people are hurt or killed, but hopefully America comes together to give Joplin/Branson/others a boost to get back going.

Howard_Casto:
We had some warnings in our area, but for us even that's rare.  Tornadoes just don't make it to WV.... we are too far inland and our mountains tend to break anything up.  I think KY got hit pretty bad though.
