Owensboro Woman Shares Photos of January 3rd, 2000 Tornado Damage [Video]
Thursday marks the 19th anniversary of the F-3 tornado that tore through Owensboro, Kentucky on January 3rd, 2000. Among the houses that were basically leveled that day was my friend Leisa's. Leisa's home, on McIntire Crossing, was one of many ravaged and destroyed that afternoon. And, while her house was eventually rebuilt, Leisa still carries with her the memories of that day . . . and photos that capture the absolute, undeniable and random fury of Mother Nature. This is her story.
