Nope I am from St Louis area. I don't know if anyone is from Joplin on here or not. If so I hope everyone is ok. That town got hit hard.

I'd imagine, they probably don't have internet access right now, but I'll be praying for you as well!

My great grandmother is up there, and as of last night nobody could get ahold of her, and a wall fell on my great uncle during all that, they said he just has minor injuries.

thank you for the prayers, I had some good news when I got home, they found my great grandmother at the hospital that didn't get destroyed, she was ok except for the pre existing broken leg that I didn't know about(yes, my family seriously lacks communication).

Alot of people don't have internet access. The tornado hit less than 1 mile from my house after it destroyed a 1/2-3/4 mile wide, 6 mile long section of joplin. The death toll is up to 116 as of right now and is expected to reach 200 before all is said and done. Any help you guys can provide via donations of every kind will be greatly appreciated. Me and a bunch of my friends and family are donating time to clean up and search efforts. There are still many of my and my wifes friends that have not been found so please pray for their safety. Thanks

A local car show in Kansas City is collecting $10 donations which will be donated to this cause this Friday night.

They said on the radio today that they have tons of people helping out and some supplies but the biggest help would be in the form of monetary donations. They said to donate to redcross.
