My Verizon Mifi was always able to get a connection however.<\/p>\n<p>Neither of our homes received any damage. However, just a few miles up Spring Place road, there was a lot of damage. An abandoned restaurant and a hair salon were destroyed. One end of the strip mall across the street was hit as well.<\/p>\n<p>I have been listening to the emergency services radio part of the day and it sounds like there is damage all around the county.  So far nine have been confirmed dead including one body found hanging form a power line.<\/p>\n<p>I am thankful that a bubble of protection was placed around me, my family and friends.  My dog did a good job of guarding the under side of the futon in the back room last night as well.<\/p>\n<p>I am looking forward to seeing our community work together to recover quickly from the damage.<\/p>\n<p>For lessens I learned helping with the clean up see the next post: <a href=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/2011\/05\/tornado-safety\/\">Tornado Safety<\/a><figure id=\"attachment_1767\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1767\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-cleveland-tn-bar.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-cleveland-tn-bar-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"tornado cleveland tn bar\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1767\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-cleveland-tn-bar-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-cleveland-tn-bar.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1767\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bar on Spring Place road<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure id=\"attachment_1768\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1768\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Hair-Place-on-Spring-Place.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Hair-Place-on-Spring-Place-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Hair Place on Spring Place\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1768\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Hair-Place-on-Spring-Place-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Hair-Place-on-Spring-Place.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1768\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hair Place on Spring Place<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure id=\"attachment_1769\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1769\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-bbq.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-bbq-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"tornado clevelnd tn bbq\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1769\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-bbq-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-bbq.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1769\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">House of BBQ<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure id=\"attachment_1770\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1770\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-traffic.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-traffic-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"tornado clevelnd tn traffic\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1770\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-traffic-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mikestrawbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/tornado-clevelnd-tn-traffic.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1770\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Traffic backed up on Spring Place due to other routes being closed.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night possibly as many as five tornadoes passed through my home of Cleveland Tn in Bradley county.
