Tornadoes Rip Through

While we were enjoying some cold weather here in Minnesota, the situation was much more severe to the south and east of us.  62 tornadoes ripped through North Carolina alone yesterday and shattered a previously set record....and the storm has killed dozens of people.

“We had 62 tornadoes touch down in NC yesterday in a matter of a couple of hours, the record before that was set in 1984, about 20. This front was gigantic.”



RALEIGH, N.C. — Rescue crews searched for survivors in wind-blasted landscapes Sunday in North Carolina, the state hardest hit by a storm system that spawned dozens of tornadoes from Oklahoma to Virginia and left dozens dead.
The spring storm, North Carolina's deadliest in two decades, spun off 62 tornadoes in that state alone Saturday night. Eleven people were confirmed dead in rural Bertie County, county manager Zee Lamb said.
Another four were confirmed dead in Bladen County, bringing the state's death toll to at least 21. Deaths reported by officials in five other states brought the U.S. toll to 45.
As we said in the previous post...the earth is groaning.
Soon, men will be fainting with fear as they observe what is coming upon them.
If you haven't already, please accept Jesus Christ as your savior and risen Lord...and allow him to make peace with God for you...so that you can escape the wrath that may soon be poured out planet earth and it's rebellious inhabitants.
