Landthieves folks on twitter saying it's bad.

I guess the tornado was reported as being 1.25 miles wide and had a debris ball that was 2 miles wide. Also, said it stalled out right on tip of a high school.

Man... this looks just as bad as Joplin.

At an elementary there are about 24 kids trapped under the rubble and they are clearing everyone out of the area so they can't see them pulling bodies out. Guy in news said they are moving people out so there aren't cameras for the "recovery".

Said that school is stopping the "search and rescue" and starting the "recovery" part with 24 kids unaccounted for.

Update: confirmed 7 kids drown and 20-30 more missing. Think it's 3rd grade class.

The old F-scale system topped out at 318mph. In 1999 they thought for awhile they may have to increase the top speed because a new near-surface wind speed record was recorded at 318mph in an F5 tornado. That tornado/wind speed was recorded in Moore, OK.

I'd like to keep this out of the Pit but how can those who have some faithful belief in a loving god explain this. This was literally an "act of god"

Not a car accident or a deranged gun man. It was a huge death storm that descended from the clouds and killed twenty little kids at school. No human elements at all. No free choice or human decisions. Just suffering.

I dunno LSOC. I just don't know. Heartbreakingly sad, and nothing to blame but life itself.
