That's the outbreak that beat the crap out of Gary Dobbs from WAAY when it struck his house in Mount Hope? That poor fellow, it beat him pretty bad and he didn't last too much longer on the air.

Yep, the Hackleburg/Phil Campbell tornado hit his house and he was there reporting on it live over the phone to the station. You can read his story here: LINK /

We had our vehicles pulled under a huge awning that covered what used to be a loading dock where I worked. By that time power was out and we had a couple different radio channels playing coverage with the windows down. I remember hearing his coverage and Saterfield covering the storms from the Nashville Airport.
