Flood Follows Storm Ravages Across Georgia
Flood conditions spread from the April storm into Georgia towns like Columbus and Atlanta. The Chattahoochee River rises sharply, power plants submerge, factories suspend work, and streetcars halt. Two steamboats drifted from moorings as devastation widens and death tolls rise from tornado damage across Mississippi and Louisiana towns. Relief efforts coordinate with federal aid, with towns in Purvis and nearby areas receiving tents and rations as hospitals set up camps and aid flows toward Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana victims.
