Interesting stuff from storm events narratives Part 1

MIRACLE

Sometimes life hangs by a thread...

June 30, 1995 Smyrna (GA) F1 tornado

"A preliminary survey confirmed a small F1 tornado touched down for less than 30 seconds. Path width 30 yards...Length 100 yards. A Dairy Queen sustained the worst damage, as the roof was completely destroyed. A pay phone on the southeast side of the building held the roof up, sparing the lives of the 30 people inside. Four of the occupants sustained minor injuries."
