Stay Out of Downtown Atlanta and Cabbagetown

Decatur Metro | March 15, 2008

The tornado damage is mind-blowing. I can’t imagine how surreal my ride to work will be on Monday morning.

The AJC and CNN have some of the best slideshows of the damage I’ve come across. Also Andisheh at CL was out late last night and has some early photos of the damage on the outskirts of downtown to prove it.

But please don’t drive to into the affected areas.

There are reports of people driving into Cabbagetown from other neighborhoods to check out the damage. And yes the pictures coming out of there are jaw-dropping, but let’s stay out of the way so these people can get as much in order as possible before the next wave of storms come through later today.

Then tomorrow, we can begin to survey the damage, help our neighbors, and begin to clean up and rebuild.
