It displaced my wife's neice and her family (hubby/2 daughters) they are evacuating them now out of the neighborhood because of damage to other homes and buildings. They think some of them may collapse onto some of the other non damaged homes. My mother-inlaws place got soem damage but not a lot. 1 of My wifes sisters can't go home either due to roads closed. It's hell there.
Hope u guys fair ok when it hits.

We got lucky and the storm passed about 1/2 mile from my home. I live near the Driver area and it got hit pretty hard. I also had a buddy who is part owner of that medical building they showed on the news with a car thrown into the building and a busted water pipe shooting water out of the wall. He said everyone in that building was OK and that the tornado passed right by the building and through his parking lot. I had a really nerve racking ride home as they said the on the news that the tornado hit my street and I could not reach my home due to the phone was out and my cell was at home. I was just glade to turn onto my street and see that everything was OK. I'm sure if my wife would have looked out our front window she could have easily seen the tornado pass by. From what I heard there was no one killed (the first report of a death was incorrect) and only minor injuries.

Glad to here yall made out OK and nobody was killed. I have prayed that there will be comfort and help for these people. Our Pastor and another one from a close by church will be going over on Thursday to help out with counselling and passing out water.
