I have been to the site in Magee where the church was destroyed. Amazing that a structure that well built was destroyed in a matter of moments. It's obvious the church took a direct hit. You should see the water tower in Magee......it's got a dent the size of a small car. As I recall.....the tornado was an EF3.
