Newburgh/ Evansville, IN Tornado Damage, Thanksgiving 2005

I was 1 block away from a neighborhood that got completely demolished (stonegate) .... I will never forget the sounds of that storm while in my basement, as if a freight train was driving through my back yard....

Cool stuff. I'm in the middle of making a 1 minute film about Newburgh for my film class and I'm doing some research on the tornado now. I moved away in '01 so thankfully I didn't experience it, but all my old classmates did. Thanks a lot for this

Really, really touching vid. I live about 350 mi. north of you. But, we knew I guy, I forgot his name, who lives SE of Eastbrooke. He rebuilt a house next to his old one. I had a look inside the damaged remains. Now, this was in 2008. The place looked like a time portal to about 5-min after the tornado. It was just awful. Everything was stuck at 2:00 Am on 11/6. Pictures, calenders, it was all there, and it just boggles my mind how a tunnel of wind can do so much damage.

Yeah, it really was terrible. We went along several streets to get all this footage and and I (visiting from college) couldn't believe my eyes. I grew up in this town and here it was, destroyed.

My whole family is here and luckily none of them or their homes were hurt. Obviously, others weren't so lucky.

Thank you for enjoying.
