Just read one of the local weather guy's blog. The tornado that took everything my friend owned was an EF5 and was on the ground for 132 miles. It started in MS, went through AL and ended just into TN around Fayetteville. I don't know how my work didn't get any damage. Pretty much every other plant around us sustained some pretty good damage.
Here's a track map of the tornadoes so far. The long purple line is the one I'm referring to. You can see where it passes over just a small corner of Morgan Co. That passed directly over us at work.

Had my tires balanced last week at the Burleson dealer. They missed it so bad it was driving me nuts. It was embarassing from 50 to 60 mph. Just had a little Athens tire shop redo it. Now it's smooth!
