Officials in Joplin, Mo., are expected to hand out a revised list of people missing from last Sunday's tornado with a dramatically lower number.
There are now 232 people officially missing from the storm that ravaged the city earlier this week, killing at least 126.
Some families are still searching for loved ones, while others are frustrated with the lack of information about who is dead and who is alive.

Joplin's Unaccounted For Number Narrows To 156
There are 156 people still unaccounted for following Sunday's devastating tornado in Joplin, Mo., state officials just reported.
That's down from 232 on Thursday.
Officials report that in the past 24 hours, 90 people reported they're OK or were located, and 6 people from the "unaccounted for" list were confirmed to have been killed.
It appears, though, that in issuing the updated list today authorities also expanded it to 252 — that's the total of those still unaccounted for, plus those who have been found, plus the six now confirmed to have died.
So, while 30 more names were added to the whole list, the good news is that 90 people have been located and are OK.
The official death toll from the Joplin tornado now stands at 132.
