Hubby was at work just a short distance from there ( a block down and across the street at Roswell Rd and Johnson Ferry) and we live a few miles away. A little scary for awhile but we are ok.

A powerful storm containing a tornado swept through East Cobb Friday night, knocking out power and causing damage in the Walton High School area, according to television reports and citizens.

There were no confirmed reports of a tornado touching down in East Cobb, but the Home Depot location at the Providence Square Shopping Center was seriously damaged. There were reports of heavy damage around East Cobb Park that prompted Cobb Police to shut down Roswell Road between Old Canton Road and Providence Road.
