We're here in Yazoo City, Mississippi, a town about 35 minutes from Jackson. A tornado tore a 3/4 mile path of destruction at about noon today. AP is reporting at least 10 dead in the state. Driving in, we saw an acre of old tall trees that were still standing, but looked like they'd been sawed in half. A bar made of brick that had been there for fifty years is now like a grotesque doll house. The bar is there. The back wall and bathrooms are there, but the front, ceiling and sides are all gone. An old jutebox and video games are tossed among the rubble. A whole church nearby is gone. Of the three crosses on the hill nearby, one is gone, two are still standing but are damaged.
