DRV Mobile Suites versus Tornado

[RustyJC]

This photo is reportedly of St. James Parish (LA) RV Park which was struck by a tornado this week that took 2 lives. The DRV Mobile Suites in the foreground had the front end dragged sideways several feet but otherwise appears to be relatively unscathed. Luck or ????

I've been through a tornado/waterspout in our previous Mobile Suites at Palacios, TX - it's a strange feeling to be sitting in your recliner and to feel the slideout lift up, shudder and then settle back down. The Mobile Suites made it through with no damage.

Yeah, the ones across the road at the bottom of the picture look like they came out unscathed. I don't know if the tornado's path was down the center of the picture in front of those four rigs, or if it touched down about where the MS is sitting and went on from there.

I think the bumper pull was saved by the DRV.

It actually looks most of the 5ers are on their side and all the bumper pulls are still upright, maybe because they are lower to the ground?
