Anyone live in/near Joplin, MO or have family in any of the tornado affected areas?

I am watching the news reports tonight (here in the UK) and am stunned at the devastation in the Midwest. I realize that Alabama was also hit really hard and they are predicting another storm for Joplin, MO again tonight and there have been reports of a tornado touching down in Dallas and in Oklahoma…with hailstones the size of baseballs raining down in Dallas/Ft Worth metro.

If you are in/near Joplin or have family anywhere near this devastation…my prayers go out to you. I hope that you are safe and that your family members are safe. If there are others out there affected in any other areas, also my prayers go out to you.

Everyone…stay as safe as possible.

(If someone else has posted… I ran a search and didn’t find anything on this topic..I apologize, but had to write something.)
