Thanx, for sharing this...And thanx for the tone of voice you speak in. All the news assholes are always gushing "Gee whiz, just looook at that!!!!" You and you son really show the shock and awe of nature on a bad day...
@Fonzi79 It was said to be toxic but I don't think it was. My dad grew up there and he has been okay. Also the government saw this as the best time to buy everyone out. It is a sad story. Among those houses destroyed was Jodan, From rascal flatts, house....... This isn't bs but my dad was good friends with him
This tornado was EF4 very bad the was mile wide. Stayed on the Ground for 2 hrs. I lived there 10 months ago I lived there for 3 years. Sad part this town will not be rebuilt. Because it was already going to be condemned and bought out because old mining town. Houses are falling because of the mines.
I lived in a farm in miami ok, about 2 miles from there. My ex fiances son teacher died in that tornado. My thoughts and prayers are with their families.
gosh dad I was so young then.lol
