70!! OMG had no idea there were SEVENTY people in that gas station LIVE on this video!!

make sure those cuts get deep cleaned. During the Tuscaloosa tornado some people got sand blasted with super fine particles and years later died from fungal infections

No that was Joplin, MO same year 2011 but, weeks later.

I'm retiring after 30 years lead met here in Fort Worth in the NWS. I was raised in Beford (Harwood/Brown Trail area) and went to BJH and Bell in the late 70s/early 80s, then A&M. Go get em' Connor! Keep the H.E.B. tradition in meteorology going!

[@DAJ2000]

Excellent and terrifying footage.

[@PrayingFarms]

My kids and I prayed for them when Ryan Hall said the Tornado was hitting this gas station. The honor of them being alive belongs to the God of this universe. This was a big strong tornado. God stepped in. Prayer is powerful!

[@DarlaAnne]

So was God just not prayed to enough for the people who have died in these storms? Or is that just when it becomes "his ways are not our ways"? I get praying, I get feeling so helpless in those moments. I myself living in Oklahoma now with my children and grandchildren and trying to get through this last severe season without a storm shelter and it's been terrifying. But as I see the stories of the people who lost their lives or loved ones died and I see comments about how great God is, how do people not see the sad irony of that statement? A woman prayed like crazy for her family to live through one of the Iowa tornadoes and so did her mom. But that woman lost her mom who died trying to save two of her grandchildren, along with also losing her husband. Only she and her 3rd child lived. Are you saying she didn't pray hard enough? Things like this are only part of why I won't ever be a Christian again but how hurtful that must be for others to read. You are free for your views but it would be nice for you and other believers to consider the very painful impact those words have for those who suffered when God did NOT step in.

[@user-rb2]

@@DarlaAnne RE: 'Things like this are only part of why I won't ever be a Christian again but how hurtful that must be for others to read.' That is hurtful to those of us who do believe in Yeshua, the Son of God. I can't answer your question why some and not others suffer tragedy but will not deny my Savior.

[@savagehoundz]

@@user-rb2 no one can understand gods plan. If he could save everyone no one would die, if no one died then no one would live. I can imagine its normal for you guys to be upset after losing loved ones, its not that praying doesn't work but as we have free will nature will continue as well. A flood that drown people may also water crops or farmland that others need to survive. Anyone can be caught in the crossfire of mother nature, jesus cant spare every single person just because they are a believer the cycle of life must go on. I hope this kind of makes sense. I mean if god saved every single believer then that would ruin the purpose of free will if all non believers can't be saved anyways. The purpose of believing isn't for selfish reasons, we all die, its just our faith in god is what gives us hope for the afterlife and hope to be better people while we are alive on this earth.

[@Carbonf1ber001]

​@@DarlaAnne especially as you reside in Oklahoma I defintley think a storm shelter is neccesary do you simply think you can survive without one or you just can't get one for another reason.

[@DarlaAnne]

@@user-rb2 I would never ask you to deny your savior or your religion in any way whatsoever. Simply asking those who believe to be mindful of how those "praises" can truly hurt people.

[@isabellind1292]

Good grief. All he was trying to do was offer some comforting words. Did you want him to say "It's not going to be okay?" It's easy to armchair quarterback what you think people should say in the middle of a tornado but in real life, it isn't the time to worry about whether you're too comforting to those around you!

[@bruixeria]

Would you rather him be telling people "we're all gonna die!" in the middle of this already traumatic event? People generally say comforting things like "it's ok" when others are scared and panicked. And hey in the end it WAS ok for this group of people because they survived and that's the most important thing.
