Yikes! Crazy Storm This Morning!

From KY3.com:

Strong storms in southern Missouri did widespread damage on Friday morning, including collapsing a large section of a TV tower in Joplin. The storm dumped up to 3 1/2 inches of rain in some areas and brought high winds.
The National Weather Service will have to send out assessment teams to see if reports of tornadoes were accurate but several areas reported winds of 80 mph and higher.

Thousands were without power, including about 60,000 customers in the Joplin area. The National Weather Service says damage is reported in at least three dozen counties. Heavy rain caused flash flooding that closed several roads.
