I brought it up at church last night. About 50 - 60 people spent the night in our church basement near Cullmn, AL. One family in our church lost their home that night. Two members of that family were at church last night.
The storm that hit Cullman first hit Guin, AL, about 80 miles to the SW of us. It just leveled that poor little town.
I remember that day/ night very well, 50 years later.
Back then I didn’t even realize it had hit Alabama so hard.
Back then though news was much more limited, we had 5 clear channels. I can still remember them. 3-11-15-32-41. News came on 2-3 times a day and all at the same time, plus we were so busy with all the local storm news.
