5/4/07 NOW: KANSAS

[Billy Griffin]

Many noticing technical difficulties with the previous NOW thread. Since we're focusing a lot on the serious situation in Kansas, thought I'd start another to continue the NOW on this very sad situation.

Cell continues cyclic.

I've been monitoring the news channels and still haven't heard any updates. KSN has the best coverage of damage it seems like and I know they have a link on their web page so you can watch if anybody is interested. Roads are supposed to be backed up for miles going into Greensburg.

Such a rural area, I'm not sure if any web feeds are available for scanner frequencies, etc. I'm sure we won't get much info until they get crews on the scene with satellite uplinks.

That same cell has been cyclic for well over 4 hours, it now appears the small town of Macksville, KS is in trouble!

KWCH reports severe damage in Greensburg. Town needs more help asap, so if you are qualified, please respond.

Understand Darin is there assisting the injured.

Craig Maire II, at www.easterniowastormchaser.com has nice video stills of the wedge tornado that decimated Greensburg, Kansas. It was a perfectly formed wedge. Feel free to email or private message me if you wish to see them. I could not get them posted here.
