I received a link for these pictures and thought that I would share. They really show the destruction that occurred in Greensburg.

Wow That is really sad. I don't watch the news so I didn't even know about it until I saw a clip of our so called president landing to see the damage. I hope no one lost their lives but by the looks of the pics I'm sure many did. My thoughts are with those affected & thier families.

So far, I think, there's been 12 deaths. According to the news the community was warned 20 minutes before it hit. The community had around 1400 people who lived there.

It's amazing only 8 died in that town. It could easily have been many more.
The angels must have been busy that day!

Those pictures were amazing. When mother nature stikes, she strikes hard.

Such destruction, amazing. I just cannot imagine what it would be like to have your home look like that. Would be interesting to see before and after pictures.

That bring back memories of the May 3rd tornado that went through Moore OK. I just want to add, one of the problems we saw afterwards was the stealing of personal information.

So, if you have a business there be careful, too. The amount of identity theft was appalling!

The worst part of tornados is you don't get much of a warning, 20 minutes is all they got as opposed to hurricanes where you get a couple days advanced warning. This is a far greater tragedy than Katrina or Rita.

Wow, that's so sad that people would use such a terrible situation to hurt others in order to make personal gain. That really upsets me. I hope it doesn't happen this time too.
