I just heard from relatives in Leakesville which is east of Hattiesburg. They have a large tree down and their fence is missing, but no major damage.
6ppc, thanks for the information.
His girlfriend just called; she has heard from him and he is so far doing fine; hunkered down in the barracks.Rather in awe; he's a northern boy & has never experienced a hurricane.
He said one of the guys went outside for a smoke (if you can believe it) and was struck in the head by a flying beam. He was taken away by ambulance; no word yet on his condition.
