Thanks for the thoughts and prayers Guy's. I live here in Chelsea, AL, I'm just a few miles Southeast of B'ham. We had one Tornado come over my Town Wed., and a couple more that turned just as they got close,thankfully no damage. Seeing a tornado coming your way is an indescribable feeling, just the shear feeling of helplessness and fear, I don't care who you are, you'll pray like you've never prayed before. Tornado's around here a expected every spring, so this was nothing we weren't prepared for, they were just too numerous and powerful this time, just wave after wave of them, that was unusual.
The pics on TV do not begin to show the scope and shear size of what happened this time, That one Tornado that hit Tuscaloosa, left a path of destruction over 165 miles long!! And before it got here at B'ham it was a 1/2 to 1 mile wide, you can't get away from a monster like that.
