Macon State College Tornado Damage
Macon State College in Macon, GA completely devastated by Mother's
Day tornados. Nearly every tree on the campus is either broken like
a toothpick or completely uprooted in the campus' densely forrested
areas.
The Student Life Center, Gymnasium and one building under
construction appear to be the only buildings with structural damage
mainly to the roofs. The entire east parking lot is filled with
uprooted trees, branches and pieces of metal off the buildings
roofs.
Other majorly damaged buildings in the area include the
Olympia Skating Rink, major structural damage to the entrance, with
some overturned vehicles. The Raceway Gas Station lost the roof
over the pumps, and the Mystic gas station further up the road.
An entire billboard fell over and landed on top of an Animal
Shelter. Krispee Kreme lost a lot of its roof and the windows broke
out. The old Piggly Wiggly had damage and several other businesses
have completely collapsed in the area.
