I've been watching it.  Amazing live coverage, including chopper footage of one tornado.  Now they're flying around surveying the damage.  They showed one house completely wiped off the foundation, and then a whole family emerged from the storm shelter while they were overhead.

Oops, the feed just cut off.

I had to refresh the page to get the feed restarted, and this thing is still going on.  There are reports of a multiple-vortex tornado now.

It's going to be a long night. They say that this system will be active for several more hours.

In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

They're about to rerun the live tornado video from earlier.

Oh, great.  I'm now watching your link, Charles, and they just said there's a tornado warning in Joplin.
