Glad to know that everyone is O.K. Thank God there were no deaths either. The damage is devestating to see on TV and must be unbelievable to see in person.
Better believe I’ll be rooting for UGA tomorrow. That would be a great story within all the bad that your city has had to deal with. Besides no FReeper could EVER root for the state that gave us the Clintoons!
TAKE GOOD CARE!
Here is a short update on the storm that went through today. The second storm...

(12:00 a.m. CST - Sunday, March 16, 2008)
Another tornado touched down in Georgia today with the cell traveling the same path as the storm last night that injured at least 9 people - 1 critically (Click here to read this blog’s reports of last night’s violent storm.) It has been reported that at least 2 people have been killed in the tornado that went through today. Prayers for all those involved in both storms, especially the family, friends and neighbors of the people who have been killed.
