After taking a direct hit from a tornado, residents of Hattiesburg, Mississippi are cleaning up.

They are also counting their blessings that no one was killed.

Hundreds of homes and businesses were damaged as the twister blew through the city.

Schools, including the University of Southern Mississippi, were shut down on Monday.

At least eighteen people were injured, throughout the state, on Sunday, as the storm struck.

Governor Phil Bryant declared states of emergency for Forrest, Lamar, Lawrence, and Marion Counties.
