Storm cleanup shuffles social rankings for the moment

Heroes are armed with chainsaws today

By Ed Waggener

High winds in Columbia between 7pm and 8:30pm CT on Tuesday night did extensive tree and structural damage around town.

It was pretty bad. Not a plumb disaster, but plenty agg'avating, to say the least.

The clean-up is being addressed with high spirits. Besides the roof damage at Grissom Funeral Home, the awning being blown off C&F Discount and Furniture on the Square, and downed tree across Elm Street, reported last night, minor to greater wind mischief was seen all over town this morning; the sounds of chainsaws made the music of the morning.
