dvowell Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I've spent the last few days covering the tornadoes which ripped through Western Kentucky and Tennessee...and I know they hit elsewhere as well. I can not possibly describe to you all here the devastation that I have borne witness to and photographed, but I wanted to send out my heartfelt condolences to any here that have been affected by these storms.

Skeeter Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Have you been through Hopkinsville? I use to live there. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebait Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I just saw that in the newspaper last evening. Can not imagine what this people must have been through. My heartfelt condolences go out to all that have lost family or friends!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvowell Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Sketter, I LIVE in Hopkinsville! The city proper is intact, but just outside of town is devastated. The Princeton Road and Greenville Road areas in particular are practically wiped out. I'll post a photo or two a little later on. I'm getting ready to go up and shoot some aerials of it all.

Skeeter Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 I lived on Pickets Way. It is behind the Best Western. Is that area ok? Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvowell Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Sketter, Yes, the Pickets Way area is just fine. Most of the damage was north/north-northwest. I spent some time in the air yesterday shooting aerials...oh man...I'll send some photos after we get them in the paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
