    That tornado threw the trailer around as if it were a paper airplane [like we used to get in trouble for making in school, when we were kids].

    Bro. That was crazy.

    Imagine just going down the road and a tractor trailer just drops from the sky in front of you. :eek:

    If that was a semi trailer it was on a model airplane scale. Just looked like typical tornado sheet metal debris.

    I drive right by there a couple times a week, the dollar tree warehouse has a ton of trailers around it and there is a small truck stop right in the tornados path. One side of the dollar tree looks completely normal and ha;f of it has a completely destroyed wall and roof collapse etc. the trailer at the rear of warehouse were ripped up bad also. Cars in median, debri everywhere etc.
