We were in Midway area yesterday. Looks like a giant cutover.

I was out on HWY 433 between Bentonia and Satartia. Thanksfully there was no damage to be seen. I feel for everyone who was affected. :(

Zeiglerville got destroyed. I sat at the end of Davis Rd trying to keep out folks who didn't belong there on Sunday. Rode around for a while that afternoon up Davis Road and 433 and back to Pierce Crossroads and those woods are gone. It will be a decade or longer before you can walk through the woods again.

Heard on the news this morning that the Tornado was on the ground for 197 miles and was between 1 and 1.75 miles wide and that it was the widest and 4th longest on record..

Was out at Midway on Saturday, Enchanted Hills on Sunday and out off Ridge Rd yesterday. To me, it looks like Ridge Rd may have gotten the worst of it. There is also alot of trees still blocking roads out there. We have cut almost 3 days straight and there is still a ton left to do. It is some rough stuff.

I have a camp in Satartia that dodged the bullet. Was wondering if Panther Swamp was in the line of the storm?

As bad as it is it could have been worse, at least it did not go right in the middle of yazoo city. My cousin is insurance adjuster for several counties hit by it and said by yesterday afternoon he already had over 40 complete losses reported.
