I'm hearing from Missouri - from Joplin and other towns in Southern Missouri, extensive damage and massive loss of life (this is unconfirmed right now).

One confirmed death now in the Camdenton, MO area (7 miles South of Camdenton) - (SPC storm reports)

Yes the outbreak across S Central MO has unconfirmed multiple trapped in homes, etc. I've heard the 9 uncomfirmed just for the area SE of Nevada around Lawrenceburg etc. Hopefully they will all be found safe!!!
