St. Louis

I'm sure you've all seen the news reports and footage from the tornado damage in St. Louis, and specifically the airport. Steve and I flew into that airport about 55 minutes before the tornado hit. We had planned on taking the MetroLink train to Whitney's apartment, but decided to take a taxi instead, because of the rain. By the time we got our luggage we left the airport at about 7:45, and the tornado hit at 8:15. Whitney's neighborhood and school weren't in the path of the tornado's, but there's quite a bit of damage around town.
Now the question is whether the airport will be opened tomorrow so that Steve can fly out, and Luis can fly in. I'm staying here this week to help Luis with his apartment search.
