It’s been one week since a deadly tornado ripped through the town of Waverly. Three people were killed, and now the community is working together to rebuild and move forward. The sound of progress is slowly becoming a rhythm in Waverly as roofing crews are working ’round the clock. “It’s pretty much non stop,” said Michael Padgett, a roofer from Waverly.
Where once there were missing shingles, or holes exposing the insides of homes, rows of blue tarps now cover up the damaged roofs, protecting homeowners from the threat of even more.
