Has anyone heard from Mike Dyer (tracdogg2) he lives in Garland, TX where hundreds of homes have been destroyed from F4 tornado. I sent him a email this morning and got no response. I pray for him and his family, that God has protected them and everyone in Garland. My son lives twenty minutes south of Garland and he was OK.

I was just thinking the same thing while watching the news, knowing he lives around there. How about his place of business?

Glad to hear he's OK. I thought of him when I saw the news. His shop is right behind his house.

Hi guys.
It's a mess here. I'm thankful all I got was some flooding and wind damage. I haven't been out yet to see all the damage. It hasn't stopped raining since this morning. 11 casualties so far, a few hundred injured. Rowlett, the town right next to me, also has major damage. I haven't be able to contact a good friend that lives in Rowlett. His house was right in the path.
Latest reports say the tornado was an F3-F4 and the base was 3/4 mile across.
Mike
