The tornado-ravaged citizens of Cordova, Alabama โ about 35 miles northwest of Birmingham, pop. 2000 โ have lost everything after a series of monster twisters tore through their town on April 27th. With nowhere to turn, scores of newly homeless residents were relieved when FEMA came along with a caravan of single-wide mobile homes they could use as shelter. Not so fast: Mayor Jack Scott has declared that single-wide mobile homes are illegal in Cordova.
