    I'm in the same time zone as her, she was on at 10 last night and again at 6 AM this morning. I don't know what time the storms rolled through there though.

    I have to say there is alot of talk about 'freak weather' happening more often, But I'm more inclined to think modern media reports it more than they used to.
    That and areas are overpopulated with cheap to build towns that fall down easier.

    Not that its any less worse for those affected, and I don't mean to be heartless.. But you live where you live.
    If you buy a trailer and park it in tornado alley, That's your choice.

    come back to my place, I'll show you how to drink tequila.

    Tuscaloosa, Alabama, which was nearly completely destroyed, was not a "trailer in tornado alley", it was a city of almost 200,000 people

    I was being glib.
    most of those affected would have been in that category though..

    12 hours ago she posted on FB that she was heading to charlotte in nc today so perhaps thats why she is mia

    From what I see on that link, most of the houses are prefab trailer style places on unmade roads..
