I have no information but I am very worried about my cousins, Penningtons, who are elderly and somewhat disabled. I can't reach them. Wondering if the tornado touched Prattville.

Yes this thread is state wide so you should start to see information being posted from all the communities impacted by this event.

I hope that all of your families are safe.

I don't know of a specific one. Power is likely still out in the places that were hit so that could be why you can't get through.

You could always post requests here and see what information it turns up.

The Red Cross site (below) may be of some help. Remember, cell towers are down and many people are without power or landlines so it may take some time to reach family or loved ones.

Unable to reach elderly mother & sister who live in a mobil home on Matts way in Hazel Green. They are likely without power, but cell phone won't work either. Very concerned for their safety -- anyone tell me how bad the storm has hit that area?

Try "211" it is a statewide registry for looking for people. They would have had to register to the best of my knowledge.

Daily Horoscope for May 23

Libra

You're in an idealistic mood today and only want to see the best in other people. This is typical Libran behaviour, because you aren't good at facing up to harsh reality at the best of times. Today, you're ready to believe that someone is a candidate for sainthood or that they're the best thing that's ever happened to you, regardless of whether it's true or not.
