We got lucky and the storm passed about 1/2 mile from my home. I live near the Driver area and it got hit pretty hard. I also had a buddy who is part owner of that medical building they showed on the news with a car thrown into the building and a busted water pipe shooting water out of the wall. He said everyone in that building was OK and that the tornado passed right by the building and through his parking lot. I had a really nerve racking ride home as they said the on the news that the tornado hit my street and I could not reach my home due to the phone was out and my cell was at home. I was just glade to turn onto my street and see that everything was OK. I'm sure if my wife would have looked out our front window she could have easily seen the tornado pass by. From what I heard there was no one killed (the first report of a death was incorrect) and only minor injuries.
