Trussville Tornado

This is a picture of the tornado that went over Trussville. It is the same one that went through and destroyed Tuscaloosa and other parts of Birmingham. When it got to Trussville, it picked up and went over. As soon as it was over Trussville, it touched back down. If you look at the map of the tornado paths, this tornado had a straight, solid line diagonally across the state--- the only place it picked up was in Trussville.

Look how huge it was! If this had touched down in Trussville, my hometown would have been one of the many wiped off the map. I don't know why Trussville was one of the lucky ones, but I am so, so thankful.
