 boom!May 11, 2008 at 3:58 PM My 6 yr old woke us up at 5:30 a.m. because she heard the tornado sirens. So we all went downstairs and waited for the storm to pass. We got off with just some downed branches and the power went off for about 1/2 an hour. Some places are without power and water. Apparently we had simultaneous tornadoes go through the north and south of town. Many roads are closed because of downed trees and some buildings in the south of town had major damage;the mayor also declared a state of emergency. So we are stuck at home today. Have to grade papers anyway. Happy Mother's Day!From Pauline Lerner
I'm glad you were lucky and didn't lose your house, your possessions, and most of all, your family.

Oh, sheesh, what a nasty wake-up for Mother's Day (in which, theoretically, all mothers should be allowed to sleep in and then be served breakfast in bed).Posted on May 11, 2008 at 8:33 PM I must say I do not miss tornado country. Glad to hear you all were fine, tho.
From Anne Horvath
The sirens went off around 2:00 am here, but I slept through them, as usual. Glad y'all are alright.

I am so glad to hear you and your family are safe. My prayers are with you for the continued safety and protection of you and your family and also those who weren't so fortunate.

I'm so glad you are okay! My sister-in-law lives in Macon, and she lucked out and didn't even lose power. But it sounds very scary!
