This is a short (but still 8MB in size) video of the landscape as I drive through my neighborhood near Thames Elementary. At the very end I swing the truck far to the left but it's hard to see why - the reason is that I'm brushing up against a pole (with transformer attached) that nearly covers that part of 34th Avenue.

Barton,

Thanks for the video. It is amazing! Could you tell us what side street you are traveling down to get to 34th? And, I assume you are traveling north once you get on 34th towards Hardy St. Is that correct?

Thanks again,
DJ

Hi,


Yes, I'm going north when I turn onto 34th. I'm 2 or 3 blocks north of Jamestown at that point, I think that puts me just north of Mandalay.

Thanks for the clarification. That would seem to put you on Beverly Road or very close to it. The destruction is incomprehensible. I've seen lots of pictures and an aerial video, but this is the first "on the ground" video of Hattiesburg I've seen. I can't even begin to get my mind around it.

Thank you so much for this video...it is heartbreaking to watch what has happened to Hattiesburg. Our prayers are with you and everyone else in the 'burg...hang tough.

Truth (aka Andrea)
