Tornados... 89+ dead in Joplin, MO

We had some storms and hail today, but South and west of here it was bad.

JOPLIN, Missouri -- A tornado ravaged parts of Joplin Sunday, killing at least 24 people as the powerful storm took out hundreds of homes and businesses.

Jasper County Emergency Management Director Keith Stammer says a tornado hit the St. John's Regional Medical Center on the city's south side.

One resident living nearly 45-miles away from the hospital told KOAM his yard is now full of debris from the hospital-- medical supplies and x-rays.

We had some hail and about 2" of rain in an hour but nothing serious.

when x-ray equipment lands 45 miles away, thats quite a wind! I pray for those families effected. I am afraid that death toll is going to rise.

Lord, have mercy. That is sad. Praying for the people in that area.

I would like to. They call for full-time reserve firefighters first... and Margie since my injury last fall, i am pretty much on light duty. My left foot stays numb, and effects my balance a bit.

According to the report, it hit a hospital but thank the Lord that all it did was blow out the windows in one of the wings.
