Living dangerously through a monsterous tornado

An eye witness account

As the sky grew darker and the winds reached furious levels, my family and I huddled in our small laundry room,
watching a local television station on my laptop broadcasting visuals of the tornado bearing down on us. By way of a
camera on top of the county courthouse, we saw the massive twister cut a path of destruction through the middle of
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA. As I held our dog Bama and my wife Amy grabbed our 16-month-old son, John Harper,
we could tell that the tornado was bearing down on us. Then the power went off and the Internet feed was gone. We
could only hold on, listen and pray.

Our home and our lives were spared, but many in Tuscaloosa were not so lucky. Neighbours slowly filed outside
their homes and saw downed tree branches and stumps and debris scattered in their yards. From our vantage point
we could not immediately see the havoc that the twister had wreaked, but we quickly learned what had happened.
The F5 tornado cut a long swath through the heart of Tuscaloosa County at least a half-mile wide on Wednesday
