Most of our traffic lights are out and it is total chaos. Looking at the row of houses that were totally destroyed I'm suprised no one died. The path was abut 1/8 mile wide and it covered about 3 mile across the city. Trees are on houses all across this path and most roadway are not passable in his area. no deaths here, so no national news. But a massive amount of destruction here in Columbus, GA.
