the first effect of a tornado is heavy rain and strong wind and finally comes the "big end"...

Anyone else notice how it jumped right over the Jack's Restaurant in Blountsville on 231? It got their Jacks sign but the whole building was spared. People across the street were not so lucky. It must have touched down right after jumping Skyball Mtn.
