[QUOTE="lovemyupser, post: 834519, member: 27653"] We live in North Alabama and also hit with these storms. The amazing thing with these wonderful drivers is they never slowed down the day the storms hit and the days after. I had the news on all day until the power went out. Every time I heard that there was another tornado on the ground I was calling my husband letting him know where it was and what the storm was doing. When I heard there was one near him I called and there was no answer. When that happens your heart stops. I was able to get a hold of him a while later and he said that he was driving by the mall and parked his truck and went to the underground parking for cover. Luckily he was fine and his truck was fine also. UPS here did as best they could without power to get packages out to their customers. Without power they started there day late and came in early due to a county wide curfew. My husband was telling me once the center got a generator the center seemed to run a little normal. On Monday the center looked like it was peak season again. Rental trucks lined the yard and trailer every where full of packages. My husband told me that driver's and loaders from other centers came to help get the 900% of packages they had sitting on the lot out to the customers. I can't thank these helpers enough for what they for our local center [/QUOTE]
