Awkward CNN's Wolf Blitzer asks atheist tornado survivor if she "thanked the Lord":

"There's nothing to look for right now" - Moore residents talk about losing their cars. "What do we tell the insurance company?"

New mayor of NYC? Weiner is locked, cocked, and ready to rock.

Weiner is second-place in the polls...Yesterday he "leaked" an ad on the Internet to announce that he's in it to win it.

But the competition is stiff; there are currently six candidates for New York City mayor. Christine Quinn, speaker of the New York City Council, is first in the polls.

Weiner is second.

Let the jokes commence.

YOU KNOW WEINER, OF COURSE, for his sexting scandal that caused for former congressman to bow out of politics for a time...Dubbed Weinergate, it began when he sent a sexually suggestive pic to a 21yr old Seattle woman. After several days of denying reports that he had posted the image, he admitted to having sent a link to the photo, and also other sexually explicit photos and messages to women both before and during his marriage. He denied ever having met, or having had a physical relationship with any of the women.

This is one brave little tornado survivor...

Her school was Plaza Towers Elementary.

Watch:

Barbara Garcia was talking to a CBS reporter about how she rode out the horrific Moore, OK storm. Shortly after she began talking about her lost little Scottie dog, the reporter noticed moving debris behind Garcia...

A two-mile wide twister ripped through Moore, OK, a city near Oklahoma City.

President Obama has signed a disaster declaration for the state of Oklahoma.

There was no way of knowing how bad this tornado was; residents had a 16 minute warning. Which, reports LaDona, isn't bad for tornado warnings.

Witnesses report that it was so big some people could barely see it; the twister engulfed the entire sky.  

Winds were up to 200mph.

This is something that makes you even more thankful to be living in a town like San Diego. Granted, we have our own dangers - wildfires - but at least you can see those coming...
