Suspected tornado flattens homes near Atlanta - CNN.com

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Waves of severe thunderstorms streaked through downtown Atlanta on Saturday, hours after a tornado left a trail of destruction through the heart of the city.

An Atlanta sidewalk is heaved up by an oak tree toppled in Friday night's storm.

A swath of uprooted and broken trees, downed utility lines, peeled-off roofs and collapsed brick walls marked the path of the tornado that struck around 9:40 p.m. Friday.

"This was clearly a tornado," Lans Rothfusz of the National Weather Service's Peachtree City, Georgia, office said. He rated the storm an EF-2 on the Enhanced Fujita scale, meaning it packed top winds of 130 miles per hour.

Utility and cleanup crews worked Saturday to restore traffic lights, clear streets and remove tons of debris in the city's business district after Friday night's unusual urban storm.

Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin and Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue declared states of emergency.

Police in Atlanta were urging people to stay away from downtown, fearing shattered glass and hanging metal would continue to fall from buildings as new storms rolled through. See a map of the downtown damage »

A heavy thunderstorm prompted another tornado warning as it plowed across Atlanta just south of downtown Saturday afternoon. More storms were seen forming in Alabama and heading toward Atlanta.

At least two people were killed Saturday afternoon as the same line of storms destroyed structures elsewhere in northern Georgia.

Trees blown down in Friday night's storm crushed a row of houses in the city's historic Cabbagetown district just east of downtown.

Initial estimates from the mayor's office said at least 20 of the historic homes were damaged or destroyed by the tornado.

Atlanta police Maj. Renee Propes urged people to stay away from Cabbagetown. See photos of the destruction »

"We appreciate the fact that people may want to help," Propes said. "But, in most instances, they are hindering our efforts and possibly putting people and property at risk."

A suspected tornado damaged 20 homes and knocked down trees south of Atlanta on Sunday, but no one was hurt by the storm, local officials said.
