Cotton Mill lofts where some of my friends live. I think they said the C building had the "pancake" thing happen to it. The exterior walls are still standing but all the floors fell down on top of each other. I remember hearing that it may take a day or two to excavate and search for people but you'd think there would be some marginal attempt at a head count to see if the excavation needs to be decidedly urgent.
Heard on the news that everyone was accounted for.

Damn.
A&P Lofts (where mr. connectatl lives) are still standing, thank God.

Shit came.
Narrowly missed a confirmed touchdown--went just a few miles to the north. Had a fantastic hailstorm 45 minutes later that I got on video.
i am so glad everyone is okay,but really sad about what has happened. i am just in a state of shock looking at the pictures and watching the news right now. thankfully i will be able to sleep tonight and not worry about storms or tornadoes. i had nightmares all last night. i have been though 2 tornadoes before and it's fucking scary. i also feel so much sympathy for the people that were not so lucky and either lost everything or was somehow effected by this storm. i really want to do some cleanup help or something monday since i am on spring break and really have nothing to do.
if you can folks...get weather alarm radios and pay attention to each tornado warning the weather service issues. i just have this sick feeling that were not done with bad storms for this spring. make noaa.gov your best friend!

yeah the sky reminded me of something out of Ghostbusters 1, when the EPA shut down the Ghostbuster's facility and the ghosts got loose and the sky got all crazy looking

Haya (who lives in Reynoldstown) said that people died they just aren't mentioning it on the news. She's a major pothead and trips on acid frequently so I'm not sure if it's the truth though
