Jennie Wilson rode out the storm with 6 others; in her home as it was ripped from its foundation.

The storm completely blew away her mother's home .

She saw the damage for the first time when morning came.

"I just kindof lost it," she said."But we're gonna survive."

Damage was widespread in Allendale. Officials tell NBC Augusta they still don't know just how widespread, nor do they know how many homes were destroyed.

"This is as bad as I've ever seen it anywhere," said Allendale County Administrator Art Williams.
