US Tornadoes: "You could definitely feel the house vibrating. The sheer force of the wind and the rain was incredible," the 31-year-old Mayfield resident and mother of a newborn said.
Alex Goodman knew something horrendous was occurring outside, as her house convulsed from a tornado that tore through western Kentucky "like a "bomb," killing dozens and forever changing the face of her town.
"You could definitely feel the house vibrating. The sheer force of the wind and the rain was incredible," the 31-year-old Mayfield resident and mother of a newborn said.
Lucky to be alive after the chaos died down, Goodman and her husband climbed the stairs from their basement and opened the front door, coming face to face with catastrophe.
"It looks like a bomb has exploded in our community," Goodman told AFP Saturday, hours after the disaster.
