Although not official at the moment, the preliminary report is that the tornado was an F-5 and 2 1/2 miles wide.

51 people dead and counting so far at Moore. 24 of those are children whom were in a school that got demolished. May be more as they continue the search.

One didn't get much attention because it went through rural areas, but this thing looked to be bigger than the Moore tornado.

Hit Wyandotte and went North. Didn't do structural damage as far as I know.

They're calling this worse than the May 3rd tornado. I can believe it, as this thing was more monstrous in size, and the destruction path more intense. Moore and Shawnee look worse than Joplin did...And that's saying something.

This all reminds me of April 27, 2011.  That was a day I'll never forget.  Good luck to all those affected.

Yeah I was down there today aiding in some relief effort. I haven’t been to Joplin but I did get called out to go do relief in New Orleans for Katrina. Although this is not as wide spread as New Orleans for as concentrated it is I would say it was on par. For all but a small area that this thing was on the ground it was in a populated area and it moved very slow. 17 miles in 50 min at 2 miles wide. You could easily tell what was towards the center of it and what was towards the outside of the tornado. It was a sad sad place and many people lost everything. If you an afford $10 please give to the Red Cross.

I hate ten pins but love the game of bowling with just the right ball to take them out.
