I was in jackson about a week after the tornado here. NE jackson residential streets were simply full of segmented large trees awaiting removal - could not see the curb on most of many residential streets. Have never seen anything like it besides Katrina debris field MS GC.

I lived in Xenia OH for the famous Xenia Tornado in 1974. They still talk about that on the Whether Channel.

As a kid, during a soccer tournament in Brandon, MS (Rankin County, where your photo was taken) we were rushed to a ditch and jumped in as a tornado flew over.

Snakes and toads and smelly water rained down on us.

Up there with my least favorite memories of life.

Looks like that could be the field I was on -— who knows, this was in the early 1970s.
