Gary's picture on CBS national news 5:30!

I imagine it wasn't a "small" tornado to those who experienced this.......

HAVING BEEN THRU AN F2 IN 93 I CAN ASSURE ALL---THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SMALL TORNADO---THEY MAY NOT BE AS WIDE--AS LONG --AS FAST-- BUT THEY ARE NOT TO BE RECKONED WITH. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH THEM ALL AND IM SO THANKFUL FOR THE SURVIVORS.

Picture was at the top of Drudge Report...Way to go Gary!
