I just got finished watching Twisters. Does anyone remember the F4 (some measured strong F3) tornado on March 31, 1973 in Athens? I was 5 years old and lived on Huntington Rd where Georgia Square Mall would eventually be built. I remember, being behind the sofa (as we had no basement) as the tornado ripped through our neighborhood (destroying many homes on our street). I remember the train sound and being scared to death. My Dad was an instructor at UGA Air Force ROTC and had just returned from Vietnam. I remember how scared he was as the tornado went by our house. https://www.onlineathens.com/story/...ath-and-destruction-40-years-ago/15577055007/
