Ya’ll keep the folks in Arkansas in your thoughts. Feet of water causing floods, multiple tornadoes, one long-trek half mile wide tornado has been confirmed, and several town damaged heavily. At one time there were 7 reported tornadoes within 20 miles of each other.

Things around our place seem alright, but I’ll have to get out and check for straight line wind damage as the sun comes out. We’ve received over 16 inches of rain and things are piling up fast. The entire state is under a state of emergency and only daylight will reveal all of the damage. Keep these folks in your thoughts.
