Atlanta Storm Damage

Postby GeorgiaCoyote » Sat Mar 15, 2008 2:23 pm

Boy I'm sure glad I wasn't at the SEC Men's Basketball Tournament last night. It's crazy what went on up there. Possible twister in Downtown. That rarely happens. Miraculous that no one was seriously injure with all the sporting events going on in the area at the time. Unfortunately there might be more to come today. That'll sure put a damper on clean-up efforts.

Well things could have been a lot worse. The only big problem now is gonna be lost revenue from those damage venues as well as the cost of repair and clean-up. Urban tornadoes are very rare. This is the first time I've ever seen Atlanta hit directly. I remember when it happened to Nashville.

My area got lucky. It passed right by us without doing any damage at all. We just got a small bout of pea-sized hail and that's it. I'm thankful it wasn't worse.

Hmmm...I'll have to fix that. Need to get Millie's weather machine operational and send a parade of tornadoes through Sage's neighborhood :laugh:

Of course I wouldn't really advocate that, even if their were a functioning weather machine. Wouldn't wish this kinda of thing on anyone, especially with all the financial hardships one of these things can bring.
