Twister!

What was seemingly a normal day at the office on April 1st would prove to turn out slightly different. While working on a project in the office upstairs during a seemingly severe thunderstorm (a common occurrence in NC), a somewhat frantic employee walked in and stated, “There’s a Tornado warning. You need to come downstairs to a safer area!” According to the local News & Observer, “a confirmed tornado touched down near Research Triangle Park” that Thursday. That’s just 4 miles from the SERVPRO of South Durham’s office! Luckily there were no deaths or injuries, but there was what appeared to be roof damage to the Pfizer building!
