    Re: So what's the weather like where you live?

    A massive tornado blasted through Tuscaloosa, Ala., home of the University of Alabama's main campus, early Wednesday evening, leaving behind a violent path of devastation and likely, a significant death toll.

    A reporter for ABC33/40 drove through some of the Tuscaloosa damage, saying that several "buildings were missing" and that some streets were "unrecognizable".

    The same tornadic cell moved northeast and, less than an hour later, blasted a similar path through the west and north sides of Alabama's largest city, Birmingham.

    Tuscaloosa's mayor Walter Maddox called the situation "catastrophic" and says parts of the city have been "obliterated".
    Wow. Severe weather can be interesting to follow, but I would not wish that kind of destruction on anyone. Horrible.

    EDIT: Stay safe Drew, these storms are absolute monsters.

        Wow what is going on in Alabama is insane. Someone said it looked like a bomb had been dropped in Birmingham.

        Everyone in Alabama will be in my prayers.

          Holy ****! I turned the weather channel a bit ago to check tomorrow's temps for my area and they were doing live coverage in Birmingham as that tornado started. I was in shock at what I was seeing cause it was literally a wall of rotating clouds. My thoughts and prayers are with all those dealing with that down there right now.

            It sounds like some of these tornados were EF4s and EF5s, basically the same strength of the one that literally wiped Greensburg, Kansas off the map several years ago. Frightening stuff, and these are hitting major urban areas, not just sparsly populated farmland.

              Be safe Drew, please let us know of your safety as soon as you can. Also hope to hear from fish as soon as possible too.

              This was a historic storm today, horrible it hit such populated areas.

                  Horrible pictures coming out of Alabama... my god.

                  Freaking monster tornadoes.

                  They're saying this could be worse than the Super Outbreak in the 70s.

                    This is nuts. One missed my house by 4 miles. There is a new one that is on a direct course for my neighborhood in 10 minutes. Sitting in my closet as I type this.

                      If you have a basement or first story bathtub get in there and put something over you.

                      Scary stuff. I've had a few situations with tornadoes but nothing like that. Stay safe.

                          AL EMA reporting 25 fatalities already. Sadly, just the beginning.
