Flighted
Caro and I suspected something was up last night when we started hearing helicopters after 10 o'clock. (We live about an airmile and a half away from the airport.) It wasn't a good sign, put together with the storm alerts we'd been getting via email and those pictures I took of threatening skies. According to various new reports this morning, a 600-700 foot wide tornado hit Holly, Colorado last night at 8:11.
This quote from Denver Channel 7's website is worth sharing. "'I looked out the back porch, and I called Syracuse Police Department -- 911, and I said, "Are there any tornadoes around because I got one in my back yard that's bigger than God,"' John Huges told 7NEWS."
Reports are still coming in, as crews try to get the power back on, clear the highway and continue the search for those still missing. So far at least one person has died of the seven sent out on Flight for Life. They say quite a few houses are totally gone, and most structures in town have some kind of damage.
Yet another example of a lot of someones having a worse day than you and me.
