I was playing softball in Niles when the game was called early due to the weather. On our way home, we saw what we thought was a smoke stack from Republic Steel. It took a minute for us to realize that it was a tornado and that it was headed for us. My father told my mother to pull the car over so that we could get into a ditch, but my mother refused. I had two brothers at home alone. We did make to our home where we all got into the basement. The tornado did not dit our home but did destroy a house across the street.
