Mom and dad live about 1/4 mile from it and thankfully got away before it blew up. Holy crap.

I have family that lives next to the middle school. Trying to find out if they are okay. If anyone knows anything please let me know. I'm in B/CS so I can't get there right now.

Mom and Dad say that the power is out at their house in Tours. Said they got into town as far as they could, but it looked like it was out of a movie. Friend that owns a local restaurant said they couldn't get into town. Supposedly using nearby baseball field to land helicopters. Everyone that I know so far is ok, but have lost their house.

Praying for family and friends in West. This is devastating news. Our family are accounted for, but property is not.

Please take the time to go donate blood. We are going through a lot tonight and will need the donations over the next couple of weeks to keep the supplies stocked.
We are at providence tomorrow from 11-5 and our donor center opens at 9am in waco. If anyone needs to know where we will be at in bell county this weekend and next week please just ask.

And please keep praying

My girlfriend who lives in Penelope just told me that they are sending people who lost their homes to Penelope School tonight. They need blankets and pillows and that sort of stuff.

Mom and Dad's house is gone.

They are OK, but the house I grew up in is gone.

I've heard a couple names of folks that are missing. Heartbreaking.

DPS will not confirm casualties. May have to evacuate other side of town when winds change overnight

BohunkAg - glad to hear you and your family are OK. I'm sure you probably lost some friends/neighbors today. Sorry for your losses.

T&P. Good friend from the dorms was from West.
This video is possibly the scariest thing I have ever seen.

We are having a blood drive tomorrow at THS.

If you're in Temple, I would imagine you'd be welcome.

My family are all accounted for, thoughts and prayers for all our friends in West and everyone involved, dad texted as it happened and i flew up there from Waco, helped get people out of nursing home and apartment building, it is just terrible, cant even describe it. Going to be a long recovery for everyone.
