Table Rock is an extremely clean lake but drowning in a 60MPH thunderstorm is not a death I would wish upon anyone.

I'm not sure exactly where they put in at but I'm pretty sure it's in the bigger water area towards the damn.

Why didn’t they just hammer down to the closet shore?

Flying High D 07-20-2018 01:24 AM

Why didn’t they have them put on there life vests during this?

Water is unrelenting. Prayers.

Still 6 people missing, so I assume the number of dead will rise to 17. Tragic...

That looks like a shitty way to go out. Not that there is some awesome way to die, but drowning in a duck boat is not cool.

I'm in Springfield and the storm that rolled through here about 5 1/2 hours ago blew in hard and fast. I was looking out my window and everything was fine one minute and the next tree branches were getting blown down, trash dumpsters were sliding down the road, shit was getting horizontal.
Power was out all over town. Just now got mine back on.

We live near Kickapoo High School. We had a few gusts of wind that made us look outside and some residual rain after that, but that was all. My boyfriend works on the SE side of town, and he said they had sirens go off. My co-worker was late this morning due to not having electricity most of the night. Starting to think we got pretty lucky at home last night.
