When the EF4 hit Cookville, I got a call from 911 telling me to take cover immediately. That was all the info we had. Having grown up with tornadoes, I like to watch to decide when to kiss my butt goodbye. So there I was on my deck at 1;30AM watching.... We got a little hail and that was it, but my terrain is inhospitable to tornadoes. I was fairly deliberate in the landscape of my property before buying. One of the houses I considered no longer exists. I'm thankful for my early upbringing with tornadoes.
