Today is the tenth anniversary of the storm that Memphians now know as "Hurricane Elvis." Around 6:30 AM on July 22, 2003, straight-line winds topping 100 miles per hour laid waste to much of the greater Memphis area. In this photo, both my parents' cars have been totaled by a tree that fell on the carport roof.
UPDATE: You can hear an interview I recorded with WKNO radio in Memphis here. I am one of several Memphians who share their recollections of that violent storm.
