After one of the deadliest tornado outbreaks ever recorded in the U.S., today will be a grim day for assessing the damage, finding ways to clean up, salvaging any personal belongings, and, unfortunately, uncovering more bodies.
The death toll continues to escalate as more bodies are being pulled from the rubble. As of this post, at least 215 people are now confirmed dead across some 6 states.
While hearing reports of some mindless individuals taking advantage of the situation by looting victims' belongings, I'm hearing more reports of how people risked their necks to find their neighbors, helping the badly injured by putting together makeshift stretchers from strewn debris, and courageously dealing with the aftermath of something that, for them, has not really sunk in yet.
Today, I hope to find some good news from the rescue and cleanup efforts to report on, share some of my favorite pics and videos, and share tornado damage information that survey crews will be assessing for today, if they can even get into some of these areas.
