Cleo, If you can please let us know how you are and things in your area. Cathy Texas Psalms 108:1-4 "My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast! I will sing and make melody! Awake, O my soul! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn! I will give thanks to the thee, O Lord, among the peoples, I will sing praises to thee among the nations. For they steadfast love is great above the heavens, thy faithfulness reaches to the clouds."(RSV)
Well, I spoke too soon yesterday! Seems we DID have a "Big Wind" Sunday at 1am from somewhere SW of the city of Clarksville thru Excell community, touching down near E. Montg School (some trees down, fences down, roof shingles off) then to East of Sango community, over to intersection of Rosson Rd with Hwy 76, where numerous pine trees on that corner were twisted off, missing the black settlement and Mt. Zion MB Church there, but hitting head on while they slept, the Tooby family home, killing the couple instantly, I'd imagine, while they slept. She was a schoolteacher, and he a disabled horseman and welder, native of Australia, I think; their trailer home was scattered across the road, toward the antebellum Bourne home, which had no visible damage. I surveyed the damage from Port Royal thru Sango to Excell this morning. Most of the damage one could see from the roadways was at Sango and Port Royal. Two dead, is the current report. This happened Saturday midnite, not Sunday midnite, when we had a SECOND line of active Tstorms, with pea sized hail on Sunday midnite. I guess we'll call it the Sango-Port Royal tornado of November 2002, altho there may be other areas of damage I did not inspect........Cleo.
