    I got out of Lambert Field airport in St. Louis Friday afternoon about hour before it was hit. Many people have lost their homes with wind in some areas up to 200 miles per hour. Looks like bombs have went off. Some people were waiting on the planes when it hit .Planes were moved by the strong winds. Metal propel into some of the planes like arrows. Glass every where.Lambert Field up at 70 per cent. Hope we do not get all this bad weather in Bratt area.
