No words to describe it here in Rainsville, AL. We got hammered hard. I've been in the Red Cross shelter for two days. We've been without power for almost four days. Our school, convention center, my bank, dozens of small businesses and some industries were totally leveled. It looks like the aftermath of nuclear war. My niece's husband lost his aunt and uncle, and we've lost two dear friends-neighbors, and there is so many who won't/can't answer their text messages.
Six or seven small cities were flattened, involving multiple counties. The National Guard is here, as well as a Marine contingent. I'm hearing a rumor that we lost 30 people right around the corner from where we live, when they took refuge in a walk-in freezer at one of our beloved cafes.
Our house caught the fringe of it and wiped out all the windbreak trees. Our attached car port took wing like something out of the Wizard of Oz. Windows broke, awning stripped.
I had to dry every circuit and board in my computer with Kleenex and finally got it running a little while ago.
Never want to see one of these again.
