On Wednesday Tuscaloosa was hit hard by a EF-5 tornado over a mile wide and crossed the city between the UA campus and the Interstate. It entereded on the west side of town, went through Forest Lake, Cedar Crest, Alberta and Holt. Over 40 people were killed and thousands lost homes.
We didn't know anyone seriously injured but had several friends that lost everything. We provided several meals to displaced families and students that found refuge with other friends on Thursday and Friday nights. Mostly we just fired up the grill and cooked all the meat from our freezer. I am not sure how long it will take our community to recover.
