Soloman is ok. The tornado started in Salina, then lifted up untill Enterprise, then all hell broke lose in Chapman, then back up till it got to Manhattan. 20 mil give or take in damage in Chapman and about 14 mil in schools. The High School is history. And it was the oldest in the state. Another 20mil in damage in Manhattan. 1 Toyota dealership and KSU got the most.

Glad to hear you guys are safe. I've been thru hurricanes and earthquakes, but tornados scare me to death. We were caving in Arkansaw when one snuck up behind us, and one one in front of us. Some of the scariest hours of my life. Sorry to hear about all the damage this one left in it's wake!

Glad to hear that you all were not directly affected by that tornado. I don't think I could live where they are possibly everyday occurences for months. We have about 6 tornado watches/warnings a year in my region, and they are usually no larger than an F2, still alot of damage but not nearly as bad or as many as what you all get out in the midwest.
