I always take these types of events seriously, but I've been to Moore several times in years past, including once after the 1999 tornado.  It was especially gripping to see the devastation near the areas I visited.  The thought of the lives of children being tragically cut short is heartbreaking.  :cry:

This seemed to be May 3rd, 1999 on steroids. The front page of the Oklahoman newspaper's headline yesterday morning was "Worse than May 3rd". The fact that several children died on this tornado is just heart-wrenching.   :cry:  :(
