I'm very, very fortunate

The tornado on April 27 that destroyed much of Tuscaloosa and beyond crossed the road 1/4 of a mile from my house and we came out unscathed. At about 4 this morning, we were in a similar situation. Many of the homes down the road from me are completely leveled or simply gone. I haven't been out to look because I don't want to get in the way, but I'm watching aerial footage on TV and it's devastating.

So far there have been two deaths, let's hope there aren't anymore.

The one that tore up Maplesville Al, passed about 5 miles south of my house when it crossed I65. We were real nervous at 5am this morning, hell of a way to start a Monday! We were fortunate in all we got was alot of wind, and alot of rain. Big prayers to everybody that was affected this morning, will be stopping at the store on the way home to donate some food/water.

Where did it cross 65??? I have a lake home on Lay and cannot get down to check on it for a couple of days and I cannot get in touch with the neighbors. I hope everyone in the area is ok

we was shaken by thunder that shook a 450,000 sq ft building this morning, but got home and no damage this time. Still fixing damage from last spring...
