Downtown Atlanta Tornadoes

Mar 19, 2008

We were driving right into the tornadoes that hit downtown Atlanta last Friday evening and had no idea until after we arrived. Yesterday, we rode the MARTA into downtown and got to see some of the damage firsthand. The newspapers are saying it will be over 1.5 billion dollars worth when all is said and done. Olympic Centenial Park was repaired the very next day, which is stunning considering the extent of damage done there. Some buildings still have broken windows that aren't even boarded up yet.

The following day (Saturday) a second wave of tornadoes hit. The pics of hail are from those.
