Prayers for your dad.

All I'm going on is that Howlin spoke with onyx ealier (who is ok thank God), and onyx indicated that - Lots of trees stripped and down, but no major damage. at least at her house; she said Hattiesburg is devastated, according to the MS radio stations.

My dad couldn't get ahold of his sisters, but found out they survived (in Purvis, 12 miles SSW of Hattiesburg). Not much info other than a couple trees hit the house, but the important thing is they're alive.

Hope you here from your dad soon, but realize communication is difficult now.

no fatalities reported in Forrest Co. (Hattiesburg).
Be glad he left Long Beach. Long Beach First Baptist Church is rubble.
