Apparently the same cell. Major damage in north Amory.

Wasn?t Smithville pretty much wiped out 10 or so years ago? Good grief, those poor people.
SVD was right. Tonight has been so bad.

Roads are blocked in Amory from all the debris blocking the roads.

I just got back home. Tonight changed me forever. What I saw tonight in Silver City hurts the mind and I'm sure the same scene was played out elsewhere.

I cannot imagine. I do not want to imagine. But, in my longer lived life, I have seen a few things including death. Do not get me wrong, my experiences could not compare to the violence you witnessed tonight.
But it did change me. I realized I was mortal, I was really going to die. It is hard to explain really, but for the first time in my life I realized how fragile life is, how fragile this body of flesh we walk around in really is. They say it is as if a tiny, whisper of a thread is holding each of us here, and it can snap at any moment.
It will took me a while to sort it all out in my mind, to get past the morose state of mind I seemed to be stuck in for a while. You may go through something similar, or worse, or not at all. What helped me was talking about it with a couple of people, in my life, who were always willing to be my sounding board. I cannot stress that enough. Verbalizing it will help you work through things in your head.
Then, with time, you will mostly get back to who you were with an added layer of strength, wisdom, and renewed appreciation for the family and friends still here. This may sound strange, but I also felt I had lost a bit of innocence or na?vet? concerning life that I had not even realized was there.
What you experienced tonight was unimaginable, but you were also helping others who needed you more, in that moment, than they have ever needed anything in their lives. That was selfless. Thank you for that.
I hope you, and the others, do not think I am a rambling or meddling older lady, and then maybe I am. But if so, it was with good intentions.
Take care, SVD. Live well.

WOW, I worked storm restoration for 22 years, I saw way too much destruction but can only say I never was in as much damaged of injury as some may have experienced last night. I feel bad thinking about the devastation, and I pray for all the ones suffering with losses! Mississippi is most definitely in the tornado alley it seems.

Prayers for all those affected. Terrible situation.
Destruction is destruction but 2011 storms thru Miss and Alabama were as bad as has ever been.

Ethan is my distant cousin (3rd/4th) - his mother and father are salt of the earth people and were instrumental to me in my young life. They lost their home as well. Small world

A nurse that used to work for me lost her house in Smithville.
