The scary years

March 11, 2008 by Donna

Tornadoes were spawned in abundance in Madison County during 1973 and 1974. We lived at 3319 Barton Avenue then. Mom reminded me of an incident I'd completely forgotten. She was driving home from the beauty shop after work--I think this would have been 11/27/1973--and noticed that trash cans were blowing all over the street.

Spurred by that remark and inspired by the bad weather early this morning, here is a list of tornadoes in Madison County during the years I lived there. Yeah, tornadoes. I know, it's weird. But tornadoes have been formative experiences in my life. Many of my most vivid … [Read more...] about Tornadoes I Have Known
