Liam Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 If memory serves me right I believe our Sylvia is from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Sylvia I’m hoping you and your family are alright! I heard about the Tornado that tore through Hattiesburg. Praying everything is alright! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 We r ok. It came through back yard and took trees and our pool pump. We were n closet. Destroyed front of Southern Miss campus. Awful. Our high school (not far from me) took a big hit. Took whole neighborhoods. We got power around midnight but still have no TV or net. We r blessed.

IBQLTN2 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 So happy to hear that you are alright Sylvia, I know how scary it is one hit our subdivision on Mothers Day about 15 years ago, I will never forget that freight train sound that came through with it. It is strange how it picks some and misses some right next door. We lucked out with only shingles and fence but others were not so lucky. Was anyone killed or injured in it? Praying for God's mercy for all those affected!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie H Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Glad you are okay, Sylvia!! I've never seen a tornado except in the movies or the news, but I can only imagine it would be terrifying!! I'm praying for mild a tornado season and may they only be where no one else is.

Primitive1 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Sylvia so glad to hear you are safe, wow that sounds like it was close! It seems like we are really having bad weather these last few years, I don't remember hearing about so many tornadoes like we do lately! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s.waits Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Linda, I'm fine. I live across town from where most of the damage is. I work for the city, so I've been listening to the radios all morning. The focus right now is to get everyone's power back up, and make sure that people with damage to their homes have a place to go. The damage is mostly confined to the specific path the tornado took. Unfortunately, that path is right through the middle of some very populated areas. As Sylvia said, there is damage to several buildings on the University campus, but thankfully no injuries there, most of the students are out of town for Mardi Gras break. Sylvia, I hope you guys are all OK. Call me if I can do anything for you, 550-2691. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnCavanaugh Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Prayers are going out to all of the Hattiesburg residents today! Even if a home was untouched, the impact on everyone in the community will be deep. So glad students were off campus and lives were spared.

Liam Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Sharon W. I did not realize you lived in Hattiesburg too, otherwise I would have included you as well in the title. If I have missed anyone else I apologize. Sharon I'm glad to hear that you and your Family are safe as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
