I don't even remember a year when tornados have caused so many deaths and done so much damage.

My prayers are with the Joplin community at this time.

We heard this on the radio today during a break.  Made the whole crew sad.

Just watching the WC and storms have been going in & out of Joplin much of the day while these people are doing S & R. They estimate 25-30% of the town is gone. I've never witnessed anything in my 58 years like the tornado outbreaks of this year.

Is this because of Media now, or is it that there are more damaging storms? RTR!
