Hope you all are staying safe! Just saw a live broadcast & it looks like Missouri is getting lit up with tornado warnings. Praying for you all. ❤️ [Reply]
MUST SEE: Storm chaser Ricky Jarvis captures video of tornado entering Jefferson City, MO. (Video has been edited into slow-mo format). #StormTrack5pic.twitter.com/M1BQrv4K5U
Minus one that hit between Ozark and Branson during the last round, they've all been along and north of I-44 (I'm south of 44). That highway is just death waiting to happen. [Reply]

We're like .25 miles north of it, but it's crazy how that seems to be the damn dividing line between weather. Snow/rain, Storms etc. [Reply]
I know they're still assessing the damage in Jefferson City, but the fact that there aren't any deaths there, let alone widespread loss of life, is incredible.
Large tornadoes going through populated areas at night is about the worst thing. [Reply]

How bad did your place get it now that you can see the carnage?
Luckily only a small section of shingles on the west side were blown off. The cap needs work and one corner might be missing one of two shingles. Not too bad compared to some of my neighbors. About to put a tarp up.
The wind pulled my canoe out from tied under my porch and flung it into the yard. Lost my trashcan. Lol.
You can track the path of debris from out of the subdivision, across a cow field and then thr couple miles to highway 54 where it turned north to Jeff city. [Reply]

It's crazy that a tornado can rip your neighbor's roof clean off, but you just have some shingles missing and a misplaced canoe. Tornadoes are so scarily random.
Glad you survived it with just a glancing blow, as it were. Good luck with the cleanup efforts. [Reply]
