Heavy rains and high winds ravaged parts of Mobile on Tuesday night, while tornadoes touched down in Pensacola and caused significant damage.

“Our U-Haul Team Members live in the communities that have been affected,” said Jesse Neill, U-Haul Company of Southern Alabama president. “We have an opportunity to help out. We care for our neighbors. We were fortunate to not be affected; but for those who were, we want to help.”
