Did all of our people fare alright in Alabama?

Did all of our people fare alright in Alabama?

I sure hope so.

We're kind of right in the middle of it now.

Did all of our people fare alright in Alabama?

There is a healthy percentage of us old "Rucker Boys" up here in Huntsville.  Four of us work in my building.  We got the news about EHS shortly after 1:30 this afternoon.  Of course, we all worried, and we're still worried about our friends and family down there.  My daughter called me, and was FREAKIN'.  She was very concerned for her friends, since she went to EHS last year.  All are accounted for as far as my family is concerned.  My company's corporate HQ is down there.  We heard there was damage to the building, but other than that, everyone was OK.  That's all we know right now.  Up here in north Alabama, we got slammed with some huge rain and big wind, but nothing catastrophic.  Please keep Enterprise in your thoughts and prayers.  The really freaky thing is I was just down there about two weeks ago..........drove right down E. Watts St. right past EHS, on my way to AL 167 to head back up here to Huntsville.  Hard to believe that school was hit so hard.

Chief,
         What's going on outside your house right now ?

[hard10]

TC? How'd you make out?

Thanks Bro.  Stef JUST came out of her room to tell me one of her friends had her arms scratched up pretty bad, and another one took a nasty knock on the head.  Stef has four of them on the phone right now.  I think she feels better knowing they're safe and accounted for.  Hopefully all of my company brethren are really OK.  That was the word earlier.  I guess we'll find out for sure tomorrow.  At least we do know all of our family's friends are OK.

It was banging up against the windows pretty good, but nothing worrisome. Nothing like they had over in Evterprise, AL today. That was terrible.

Bagger,
          When this ends, if there's anything the folks on the site can do to help those that lost their homes etc. please let us know. Also, all our prayers are with those that have lost family or friends.

Be safe brother

Forgot one..............man I feel like CHIT.  Can't believe I forgot about gunshot24.  Trying to call, but "all circuits are busy."  I'll keep checking on him and G/F.  He doesn't post much, but he reads all the time, and is the one who told me about this forum.

We're all safe here in Birmingham, although a community close to here (Adamsville) got slammed with what they think was a short touchdown by another tornado...Suzanne was in the basement when I got home, as a funnel was only about 4 miles from the house, but it never touched down.  I was driving home in some gawd awful rain/wind...

It's terrible down in Enterprise...the HS looks like it exploded.  15 lost their lives in the school...horrible loss.  Last total I heard was 19 statewide.  They're still digging through the rubble, but hopefully the news won't get any worse.

Thank ya'll for the concern, brothers and sisters...

[Midnight Rider]

Hope you guys to the East only get the rain...I think the air is more stable over that way, so hopefully the worst is over.  The southern part of the state is relatively flat, so there's little to divert the damn things.

Henry...hope your bro is OK...

[HDguy]

Everything here in the Atlanta area is ok. Just some heavy rain, wind, lightning and thunder. My heart sure goes out to all the Alabama folks. That was some bad chit that you all got hit with. 

[Hoist!]

Sorry to hear about that storm in Alabams guys. I'm glad the people that posted today are OK as are their families. I hope everyone else is fine too. My heart goes out to the families affected by this. Hoist!
