Pray harder people! The Weather Channel says Vilonia is gone! Pavement was even scoured away. They said that indicates EF4/EF5. Semi trucks blown off
of I-40. Mike Siedel is going to try to get there and give a live report at 6 AM.
Take care Susan and everyone in the path of this storm.
Tornado warning - take cover. Our skies are cloudy and
dark, no wind - very still and I can feel the change in
the barometer and humidity. We are in for some storms
later tonight. Sure I won't be getting much sleep.
Lots of injuries in Susan's area and people trapped. Many lost their homes. Prayers for SUSAN! They are only allowing emergency vehicles into the
town- it's blocked off at the borders. I hope she is out helping- not trapped or injured (we all know she is either one or the other!)
Robin... the Weather Channel just stated that the Ozarks have received over a foot of rain. WTH is that going to do to the already soaked and
saturated, shakey ground?!?!?!
How much talk is there amongst the locals about HAARP?
How much do locals believe that the current weather is unprecedented?
In what ways would they consider it unprecedented?
What is your sense in your spirit about the next 30-90 days in your area?
Do you know anyone moving out of the area because of the NEW MADRID predictions . . . such as seen in the maps at the start of this FR thread (Stan
Deyo's Hopi elders' map and John Moore's "Navy map") and summarized in the text?
I sent Susan a FB message hoping it would go to her cellphone like mine does. Left my phone number and asked her to call if she got a chance so we
would know she is ok.
Here's a link to a TV news station - reporting 1 fatality so far. Power out, schools closed tomorrow. News crews having trouble getting to area due
to damage.
Vilonia is being referred to as the hardest hit area. A police official said that he hadn't heard of any fatalities. Within moments after the anchors
finished talking to the officier, they reported a fatality in Vilonia.
I just looked on Susan's Facebook page. Last update from her was 3 hours ago stating tornado's heading her way. I really hope we or someone hears
from her soon!!!
Please stay safe ButterCookie. Remember your survival skills. Don't Panic. Duck and cover. May your family and you be safe. You too are in my
thoughts.and prayers.
I am watching and praying for you all.

Policeman on the scanner in Arkansas said they don't want any Lookie-Lou's coming down and getting in the way! I guess that's what we here call
gawkers!
stay safe and have a way to let us know you are ok after that mess comes thru there. I think we are ok until tomorrow nite after 12 inches of rain
and funnel clouds here that didn't do much damage. Luckily I am off tomorrow and hopefully some of the flood waters will have receded. I guess we
will have to hold cyber hands until we hear from Susan.
less than 15 miles by way of the bird. I'm hoping t was just crazy thunder.. I'm hoping. I didn't hear anything on the news about it so hopefully
it was nothing. I've never in my life experienced thunder like that though.
some people I know in Vilonia say that the fatality was someone from the Steed family. I don't know the Steed family, but I'm hoping that Susan
doesn't either. I feel like I'm worried about a family member!
