I know we've all been hit pretty bad here in the south. We've lost over 30 lives here in Tennessee due to the storm/tornadoes. How you others holding up? Justin, Tommy, Ryan, etc.
I hope all is okay :ermm:

We are fine down here in Mobile, Alabama. As some of you know I used to live in Tuscaloosa, so I spent most of the night last night playing facebook and phone tag with all my friends and frat brothers.....
take care,
Tommy

Glad you both are ok.
Was talking to Justin two days ago and he left a post yesterday so I think he's ok
Lived in Kentucky for 4years and another in Louisiana. Was lucky I never had to face weather problems.
Hope everyone's ok

Im fine here. Me and my girl were actually camping in the middle of no where when the worst part hit. Nothing like strong winds and hail while in a tiny camper. But the town I live in got hit way worse, 2 people died. It was BAD! Some of the worse I've ever seen!

Well, we're fine at my house, but a lot of people right across the road aren't so lucky...Whole houses have been ripped clean from their foundations, barns scattered like toothpicks, light poles broken perfectly in two, and quite a few people hurt, trapped, or homeless. The steep hill behind our house probably saved us. Some of the straight-line winds alone were 100+ miles an hour, and there's LOTS of severe hail damage, including one of our two vehicles and the top of our house. Power is still out for many people here, and there are safe houses open all over the area. It's a mess.
Adriane and I were at work when the first few systems rolled through, and we had two tornado invacuations that basically lasted from 9:40 PM until we left at 12:00 AM. A tornado touched down just half a mile away from the building and ripped through some trees. After we left, we saw a giant wall cloud heading our way in the flashes of lightning while driving, but managed to avoid it through backroads before MORE hail started pelting our windshield. Four roads were already closed due to the damage by that time, and people in trucks were browsing for broken power lines with spot lights.
Man, there are just no words for it. The devastation is incredible, and this place didn't even experience 1/10th of the destructive power that hit Tuscaloosa/Birmingham. I couldn't imagine what those people are going through. Somebody at work yesterday said that there were reports of random stuff just falling out of the sky in parts of Alabama. :blink:

Doing good. Lots of rain and a little roof damage, nothing to complain about.
I got stuck in Wal-Mart for 30 minutes because of a Tornado warning Monday. They gathered everyone up and made them go to the electronics department to wait it out.

My aunt lives down in Mobile and I have'nt heard from her just yet so i'm not sure . Up here in KY we've had lots of really bad storms with tornados touching down and some very high winds but I know it's nothing compared to the others down in the south . So I wish everyone and their familes to be safe and try to keep any of us updated if you can .
