I've been glued to TWC since before 7pm.

Dr. Forbes is a God.
I was glued to TWC too. One of the craziest things was when they were talking to the guy on-scene in Birmingham before the tornado hit and there was debris falling ahead of the storm. Dr. Forbes said he heard of debris falling 1 mile ahead of the storm but never 15+ miles, like what was happening yesterday. TWC did an awesome job watching that tornado track once they got a visual to pretty much not being able to see it. As soon as I saw how large it was and the path it was taking I knew the casualty count would be high... up to 128 in Alabama and 159 for the storm total so far. :(

No damage to Alabama campus or the totals may have been even higher. Picture from Alabama:

Found out that a family friend lost a house in Tuscaloosa. :sad2:

They're ok. They were eating when the twister took their house. They said they came back to a pile of ruined belongings.

I have some friends in southern Georgia too. I don't think they got the bad stuff, but still. Hope they're ok.

I turned on the morning news to catch some coverage of this and they are all still covering the royal wedding instead. Words fail me. :shake:

I was going to post the same thing. Unfucking believable. And all these drama-major whore news bunnies trying to contain their on-air orgasms over this wedding in between pictures of the devastation is fucking disgraceful. The French did at least one thing right...
