Debris

This is a map of central Alabama in case anyone was curious, I wanted to show the distance of how long the big tornado traveled and the comparison of where it started to where my family lives.

The following is a list of items my family found in their yard after the storms Wednesday night. Like I said in a previous post, my family lives in Pinson which is metro-Birmingham. Tuscaloosa is approximately 60 miles from Birmingham. A customer of my mom's had family find a checkbook in their yard from Tuscaloosa - they live in Gadsden which is 104 miles from Tuscaloosa.

My mom's yard:

-A piece of video vcr tape
-Black roof paper (several pieces)
-A strip of shredded paper (from a shredder) like a credit card offer.
-A piece of an insurance form
-A receipt from Smoothie King in Tuscaloosa
-Several chunks of yellow insulation
-A leaf from a house plant
-A pine frawn
-Pine bark
-Pine needles with insulation and leaf pieces embedded in it
-Pieces of wall paint
-Limb with leaves from either house plant or tree
-Splintered pieces of wood, not sure if from tree or house
-Some type of paper with foam backing

This photo is over an uprooted tree from a heavy thunderstorm that came through early Wednesday morning before the tornado's came into Alabama.

The death toll keeps rising, it's so sad to hear about all the lives lost and of course people and families without homes/businesses. There are some pretty amazing/heart wrenching photo's coming out in the news right now.

This is what's left of a Hobby Lobby:

We'll never understand nature's fury.....
