Living in the Atlanta area, we're used to tornado warnings and tornadoes. When the alarm goes, you shouldn't ignore it. I've been through 2. Once in Ft. Rucker and once here.
No reports yet of fatalities yet in Tally. That's a good thing.
Good luck to them in getting things back up and running.

A few miles away with a tornado is like being 100 miles away but I'd get someone to put eyeballs on it asap just make sure there's no roof damage. Tornadoes are weird. I've seen a house with all it's shingles intact standing next to a house that had no roof.

They are scary. We at the end of “tornado alley” and it seems like they hit around us several times a year.
Had an apartment building hit in the 70’s. Took the roof off and drove the roof rafters through the building next door.
Praying everyone comes out well.

Attributed to Dr. W. H. McHenry, he reported the experience of an invalid during a cyclone at Nelson who was asleep in her home directly in the path of the cyclone. “That storm picked her up so gently that her somnolent senses were deluded into the belief that she was making a quick voyage in an airship. Her bed sailed gracefully through the air for almost a mile the invalid smiling in her dreams. Then she was gently deposited between two straw stacks upon eight or ten feet of chaff. But that wasn’t the wonderful part about it. “Down in town Warren Knapp runs a soda water fountain. That cyclone whisked around his store pretty lively and in the general confusion mixed an ice cream soda, flavored it with pineapple syrup and carried it to the bedside of the invalid. By her pillow it descended with a gentle thud and she awoke to find two long straws carefully selected from the farmers straw pile protruding from the glass. An hour later the invalid was rescued and taken to the home of a neighbor. The soda water glass was donated to the museum of the local High school.”

Must have been in SE Tally, maybe south Tally traveled W to E. My sister lives in Indian Head and some houses are wrecked. They got a pine limb through a truck windshield.

It's very localized damage. We are on Mahan Dr. just east of Blairstone Rd. My neighborhood has small limbs down in yards and on houses but nothing major and we never lost power. The intersection of Mahan and Blairstone was closed for a tree removal. My daughter lives on the west side and her area is without power.

Our place is on Mahan also.
My BIL said nothing much at the house. Didn’t lose power either.

My tri-county area had been without power since about 8am this morning, including several of our cities and towns. I just settled in with the family with the generator going. Our groceries should be fine, and we have our window unit running in our bedroom for some comfort.
Not a lot of serious damage that I know of. A tree fell on my cow fence and I had to rangle my cows after we closed the office. I also had a couple of chicken coops flipped. A friend of mine who owns a prefab shed business lost several sheds on his show lot. I saw one barn that had its roof ripped off and dumped onto the highway. I did have to dodge falling limbs on the way in this morning.
