[dfergie]

Tornadoes damaged the Fiber feed for Columbia Mississippi, hopefully techs can get in their this morning to repair and restore

Do you perhaps mean Columbus/Tupelo? Columbia is a small town in extreme Southern Miss. Tupelo was hit pretty hard yesterday by a tornado.

Source said MS, but I am thinking it might be Missouri instead...

Yeah, Columbia is closer to Biloxi/the Gulf than the area where the tornadoes hit. I think Pearl was the farthest south it went.

It is Columbus, Mississippi, because we just got our locals back last night. The fiber link near Tupelo was heavily damaged by the tornado. We still don't have the CW back, but I don't watch it anyway.
