It was on the news. D:

In the northern states. The tornado that came through here, I mean. Yeah, it was that bad. I finally got to see the damage today on my way home from school and I started crying the moment I saw it. You don't realize just how bad it is until you see it in person, and then it all just sinks in and it hurts.

Three tornadoes actually ripped through Murfreesboro, but the most talked about one has be the EF-3. There have been reports about them possibly changing it to and EF-4, but I'm not sure if that's true because I haven't heard anything about it on the news. The damage caused still hasn't been cleaned up, but the roads have cleared a bit. I'm really glad I didn't see it before the clean up started because I think I would have felt even worse. It's going to take a while for them to get done with clean up and it's going to take even longer for them to get back to a normal life.

My heart goes out to all the people who lost their homes on Friday. My school is starting a fundraiser to help support the tornado victims and they're taking a bus load of students out to help with clean up tomorrow afternoon. It just goes to show you that people do have a heart and that a community can work together.

It was on the news in Colorado too

I think it was on the news everywhere. It was awful, though.

True that. I think they upgraded it to an EF4

I haven't had a chance to watch the news today. They may have, but I have my doubts.

I found the article about it, here's a [link] to the article, with a crazy picture of it.

Thank you for that.

No problem, I think. I'm sorry for the emotional stress this whole event has caused you. It probably didn't seem very thoughtful of me to send you that, I was just trying to keep you informed. I had no intent to offend or anything negative *hug*

Oh, no. It's fine. I thank you for that. *hugs back*
