Possible F2 Tornado Hits Downtown Atlanta!

By David D. Charles -
Something incredibly unusual has happened in The City Of Atlanta. This morning we are waking up to find incredible damage to numerous structures throughout the city. It's not often you hear (in fact, I've really never heard) of a tornado ripping through a metropolitan city with as many tall buildings as are in the downtown area.






These pictures only show a glimpse of the damage. Severe damage has been reported as several landmark structures including: The Georgia Dome, CNN Center, Omni Hotel, Westin Hotel, Georgia Convention Center, Centennial Olympic Park, The Equitable Building, The Suntrust Tower, and many, many others. Severe damage is being reported in many communities including the historic Cabbage Town neighborhood around the downtown area.



Amazingly, no deaths have been reported as a result of this incredible tragedy, and the reports of injuries are minimal considering the damage.

    I just heard about this a little while ago, totally amazing. When you think tornado you do not think of Atlanta! I have a good friend there that I called to check on and I didn't get through to her yet, but I am sure she is fine.
    I pray that all is well with you and yours over there.
    Peace & Love

    ohhh lord, that's all I need to hear is Tornado/City/Unusual. Since I'll be in "Tornado Alley (or Valley)" this is making me nervous. At lease not one died in Atlanta.

    My heart just goes out to all those who had experienced the effects of the tornado. It is all so sad. I don't have any relatives there but I do have some friends. To me it is global warming

    yeah I was at the hawks game when it popped off..luckily the hawks game and the SEC tourney both were still going on so it wasn't that many people on the streets. If it was say 5-10 minutes later thousands of people would have been out there. it was crazy!

    I'm glad you and your family are doing good. I can't believe it happen this weekend with the NCAA conference going on. I live in Texas and I hate this part of the year.

    For a tornado to hit the middle of a city...there is something obviously f*cked up with our climate system, because this should NOT be happening.

My Monday Morning Started At 11:00PM...Last Night!

We had to take little j. to the Doctor this morning because last night he didn't sleep good and neither did we. He kept crying and crying and wouldn't stop. We were completely thrown because he had such a good day. Could it be: 1. He's teething and it's bothering him? Yes, but a little baby Orajel and infants Tylenol should have done the trick. It didn't. 2. I ate something that didn't agree with him? Of course we couldn't come up with anything. 3. He was just so tired from everything we did yesterday and it was hard for him to fall asleep? Maybe. 4. He got bit by a bug and we didn't know? We checked all over, no bites. We even checked to see if there was a piece of hair wrapped around his little fingers and toes. None! 5. Because he's teething he could have an ear infection? Yes very possible but he didn't show the usual signs: fever, pulling at his ears (that looked like it was out of the norm for him because it's something he does often...

Inspired To Write...

The other day a friend of mine asked me, where have you been? She then proceeded to say, it's like you fell off the face of the earth. I laughed and said, "no, I've actually fallen onto the face of the earth". Girl, thanks for that little laugh, I appreciated the moment :) I've fallen onto the face of the earth and bumped right into my family, friends (old and new), business partners, business meetings, social gatherings, moms meetings, and so many activities for the kids, life has been busy. My natural journey has opened so many doors, talk about beautiful women. Sistah's who have inspired me to keep going and stay focused on the end result rather than the transitioning stage. These days I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail-bun. I don't have time to get all fancy, but when I can I'll do a two-strand twist style and use my latest product discovery, Oyin Handmade . They are very reasonable and the products smell so good. If it's one thing I...
