OT: Tornado hits Downtown Atlanta

[kylehess10]

I know there's a few members on here from Atlanta, so was anybody on here stuck there during the storm? The SEC Tournament was going on as was the Hawks game. I live 30 miles north, but once I saw what happened on TV, with a tornado hitting the CNN Center and downtown area, I just had to go down there and check it out. I got there as soon as the sun rose the following morning and here's some pics I took of the damages.
