We got lucky where I live, the storms split and went South and North of us. One tornado hit a small community my Center delivers, they had two people killed and a few businesses destroyed just a little bit below the Atlanta Motor Speedway. There is some wind damage on my delivery area and several roads were blocked by some large trees that were blown down. I live right off I-20, we sometimes call it "Tornado Alley". I have had a couple of near misses at my house. About fifteen years ago one almost came down on my house, a lot of treetops were broke in my yard and I still have a couple of large pine trees that are bent over at about a thirty degree angle. We had to go to our basement in the middle of the night to seek shelter, I remember as the air pressure changed the windows in my house almost blew out. My house actually swayed a little bit, we thought it was going to disappear over our heads. I also had another near miss and our cars were damaged by the hail a couple of years ago.
But we had nothing as bad as what hit Alabama. This series of tornadoes killed over three hundred so far. I admire our driver in that video, it should be shown in every Center in our company. He did the right thing, he headed for the nearest strong shelter and got out of that Package Car. He would have probably been killed if he stayed in it. Another thing to do is to get low to the ground, like in a ditch so you lessen your chances of being hit by debris.
I wish the best for the folks in these hard hit areas, I hope they recover the best they can as soon as possible. I am always awed by the way people come together in adverse conditions like this to help each other out.
