    I work at Edgewood and the power went out on Moreland but not my complex. So I took an alternate route home and saw Decatur Police/Firemen driving down Dekalb Avenue towards ATL.

    I don't think it was a tornado. Sounds and looks more like a micro burst. Storm happened at what 9:30 it's now almost 1:30 and still no clean up crew and the mayor's stupid ass has yet to show her face. Stupid man.

    Consider this. As most of us konw that 1/2" of snow shuts down pretty much everything everywhere in Georgia other than up north. You have a "tornado" come through a major part of Atlanta Dome, CNN Center, Omni, Phillips Arena, and GSU. All of which were heavily occupied with the exception of Phillips. The city simply put to me did not have a plan for something like this. I'm looking at the news right now and 4+ hours later and there is no clean up going on anywhere. You think that any other major city wouldn't have started a clean up by now? The major just basically put the blame for injuries and lack of warning on the media . My major complaint is lack of response preparedness.

    clean up??? The weather is still bad and it is kinda late to dispatch crews just to clean up a mess. Understand we're not talking about life and death circumstances, so I don't understand why anybody should mobilize just to clean up in the middle of the night. Also the area is dangerous due to still falling glass caused by the wind and their is a possibility that unstable objects could injury someone, why risk injury to clean up in the dark.

    The weather is still bad? Turn on the tv from what I am seeing on the news on and on 3 different weather service radar pics the skys are clears there. Now as far as structural damadge. There are still people inside the CNN building and the other surrounding buildings. What I see is a bunch of cops and fire fighters standing around twiddling their thumbs wasting time and tax dollars. Why not call in the clean up crews in the middle of the night. IT'S A MAJOR CITY.

    My dad was staying at the Omni (Sp?) hotel since Wed for a big convention. This building was proably hit the hardest. He said he was at the bar and people came storming to the lobby (it was packed) they were running and hiding behind the bar, jumping in the kitchen as windows blew out and furniture went down the street. He said his heart was racing but it was quote "cool."

    If four floors of the Cotton Mill Lofts collapsed how is there not a death count? How could they possibly cleared it out in there because there was no warning. Eh, I don't know. I know someone had to have died.

    I don't know but it doesnt really look like the inside has imploded they said 4 stories had imploded but it only looks like the building is 5 stories and they asked someone that lived there if everybody got out and they said yes

    after leaving work in buckhead around 10pm i took 400 and didn't see any sign's of a torndao during that time. its pretty interesting how in one location it can be clear of any danger but in others is strikes who no remorse. georgia weather is insane, watching the news now and there are some areas with some serious damage, ouch.

    I was thinking the same thing when I watched the Live press conference at 1:30 and the Mayor said "We do not know for certain what caused the damage." While the B-roll was playing I was looking for clues like a giant footprint haha
