Joplin Missouri hospital and city destroyed today.

1. The weather channel is doing live coverage of the destruction.

It looks terrible, showed the hospital and homes.

Sucked for me, too.

4. Watching on CNN, just wondering does Don Lemon work

24 hours 7 days a week? I swear he is the only Anchor I have seen on CNN for months.

9. I say the same thing whenever I watch CNN

Don must actually live in the CNN building. He never looks tired either.

5. I saw these storms going up this morning

from my pasture. I looked and saw a line of cells headed straight up with anvils forming. My husband and I were grateful they were not on the other side of us, we knew someone was going to get hit pretty hard. This is just devastating. We were so lucky yesterday. It seems our entire area stood outside and watched funnels, long term funnels, slowly go from one end of the city to the other. This is the other side to our continuing fascination with the weather. What a horrible thing, that poor city.

6. This weather channel guy is just amazing.

I've been watching the live feed for several hours now, and he just did the standup for the late night and the early morning newsfeeds. He worked without any notes and it was smooth, polished, and informative.

7. OMG how heartbreaking it is to watch this. God bless them. They sure will be in my prayers tonite.

8. Horrible

was there ever an explosion at the hospital? I want to know if that kind man found his neighbor that he was frantic to find.
