Tornado Warning in St. Louis
 

Possible tornado west of Chesterfield near New Melle. Big f'ing line of storms headed right for the city. Everybody be safe and get indoors.

This is the proverbial "bad park" in our little community. old gangsta want to bes playing cards, young ones playing ball, lots of mean muggin from most of them.

city sirens sounding out their warnings for the second time now, still playing ball.

Darwin at work.

Reported.

What is a zipper head?

I know, right? but I have to stay too, reeruns. its not an offense to make them leave yet

funnel sighted in st charles county, and in wentsville

A person really good at math.

Stay safe ladies and germs.

I'm not going to lie, i use it for dumbass now. but it was from vietnam or korean war, for asian decent

to be clear these are african americans being dumbasses, and was not meant to be a racial term for asians. I hate big PC planet

I know what you mean. I use taco bender as a synonym for moron now. It's gotten me in trouble a few times.

Go watch Gran Torino. You'll get the phrase.

I'm sure they will get gangster on that tornado lol

And there goes my Friday night.

And...there goes the arch.

Supposedly it's passing near Bridgeton, which is near the airport.

Tornado headed towards Lambert Airport and Florissant. It's supposed to be a big one.

Another one is south of St. Louis City heading towards Columbia, IL.

Florissant, Ferguson, Jennings, northeast of airport. Look out.

Tornado sirens in Joplin

Lambert has shut down for the night.

yeah I moved to a parking garage

One of my best friends lives in St. Charles. She's okay, but it couldn't have missed her by much.

reports of injuries in earth city at a holiday inn

Hail starting, and just got dispatched to a suspecious person, reported someone was running. well no shit, its storming.....

That is right by the Rams training facility.

yup

Looks like the leading edge of stuff in St. Louis is over on the Illinois side now, Granite City and Carlinville and Collinsville. Look out for lots of rain and lightning now. Flooding and power outages. Tornado threat moved off into Illinois now.

So much for that river myth.

Injuries in st. ann where I use to live for a little while.

glad they canceled the game at Bush. Hopefully most got out of there and off the roads.

KMOV's website in St. Louis is down. Probably slammed the server.

:LOL:

Is this where I make a joke about no touchdowns there, or is it inappropriate?

MT @zerwekh Busch Stadium business doesn't appear to be true. The stadium just cleared employees using the stadium as a shelter to go home

RT @tylerabc17: RT @DaniWex: Just to clarify no one is trapped at Busch Stadium. People are free to do what they want

We have NO confirmation of casaulties at the Holiday Inn in Earth City yet. Pattonville Fire is on scene.

St. Louis Post Disptach live chat says the report at Earth City is bullshit. Nobody hurt. And the Busch Stadium story is bullshit too.

Cant trust twitter :banghead:

#Cardinals stadium official Mike Bretani says that there has been no damage to Busch Stadium, no debris, no reports of incidents with fans.

Why do people post BS about hotels being gone and people hurt on Twitter? Just to **** with people for fun?

This is why twitter sucks.

We rode it out in the basement at Paddy O's.

Glad to hear you are okay. :thumb:

Thanks. Just trying to determine what actually happened. I know the reports about the stadium and the Holiday Inn are bullshit, but did hear from a friend that was in a casino up there and said the building shook, they lost power, and their ears hurt from the pressure - so something definitely rolled though that area.

I hope the tornados take St. Louis's crappy pizza and baseball team.

Seriously though, everyone stay safe.

No. The fact that every "tweet" is written in some foreign language is why twitter sucks.

Hollywood Casino sustained damage. Lobby windows are blown out, and apparently some of the roof is damaged/missing.

What high schools were hit.

People are pretty stupid, a call for shots fired. That's thunder you idiots.

Yup, airport had some damage too, hotel was damaged and people were transported to a local VA hospital for protection and thats were some reporter got the story messed up and claimed "mass casualties", lots of wind damage, trees and lines down, flash flooding, and apparently suspicious people running around and random shoots fired..... Lol
