Just heard from my brother, he lives in Wichita, so its a relief that he is ok. He didn't go in to detail as they are still in the shelter. Fingers crossed for him.

From Sky News...

Article said:
The National Weather Service (NWS) said there had been some 120 tornado sightings in four US states - Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa.

Most were recorded in Kansas, where almost 100 twisters were spotted - including a half-mile-wide tornado close to Wichita.
The scale and power of these things must be terrifying.
It's one thing to watch it on the TV, but to be actually stuck in the middle of one... yikes

I remember crawling under his house in a massive lightning storm pouring with rain when the sirens went off about 4 years ago when I visited...one of the most scary experiences I've ever had.
