I met the daughter-in-law to the old lady that lived here. She said they went and got her out right before it hit. We lost powerlines in this area . On Wed 2/6 we saw this old lady walking around in the cold wind running for every piece of paper the wind would blow trying to find anything that belonged to her

A young man lived here nothing is left of his home. Last we heard he was alive but in bad shape. They told a co-worker of mine they found him almost a mile from here

In fact we was told more than 3/4 of it is gone and what remains is worthless. This is outside of Hartsville , TN flames could be seen in Nashville when the tornado took it out.Dixie Alley...Been working since Feb.6 TornadoFeb2008083

I did'nt see any but it was days after the tornado hit that I was there. Some co-worker's claimed they saw 3 and I heard about this before I even arrived in this area.

I started working the tornado damage @ 2:00 a.m. Wed 2/6 . We worked 16 to 21 hours a day since Crying or Very sad All our lines are HOT now just need to clean up and return all the equipment. If you live where strong storms are common please look into putting a safe room or tornado shelter in.I have 133 photos I share more later . Dixie Alley...Been working since Feb.6 Tornado_Alley

Cold hard reality. Knew of a guy in Oklahoma. He woke up with the wind, woke his wife up and started heading for the shelter. They got down to the living room and the house started shaking. There was one wall that had a fireplace and a picture of our lord above it. He decided that was there best chance at the time. The only thing left standing 2 minuets later was that one wall. That tornado took out a patch 1/2 mile wide and 10 miles long. This is all second hand info, but a tornado is one thing I will run and hide from.
