Alabama Tornado Storm Damage from Dadeville Today :: Photos
Almost impossible to describe what we saw today as we took a small group of people from Cornerstone into Dadeville, AL. We didn’t know what to expect when we got there and most of the area was closed off, but the houses the police directed us to were way beyond needing trees cleaned up or…

Humidity, Storms, and Lightning in Alabama are Back
