GREENSBORO, N.C. Wednesday marks the day a tornado ripped through neighborhoods in East Greensboro and other parts of the Triad. That day made for one many said they would never forget and hundreds of houses and businesses were damaged or flattened completely.
Three years after some in the community are still on the path to recovery. Roofs of some houses are still covered tarpaulin, one of the leftover signs of the cleanup from the tornado. Brand new rebuilt houses stuck out like a sore thumb which showed that rebuilding the community remained an ongoing process.
