I know what you are talking about. Fridley and St. Anthony both had gotten hit badly many years ago.
I don't know if you have seen aerial pictures of the two tornadoes that went through. There are trees to the left and right of the path and 5 miles of roof but no trees.
This is the first time I have walked through a tornado destruction path. Amazing.
Destroyed garage and the motor opener was found 3 houses away. No damage to one location and total destruction next to it. I have 7 trees in my yard, 6 went down. The one that did not fall was right next to the renter's cars.
Exit roads from I-94 to North are closed to keep lookers out. I want to get there to take picture for my insurance company. Going to be an interesting (and likely very expensive for me) next few days.

Reading the reports, and getting a bearing on exactly which areas were damaged, it appears that one of the hardest hit areas in north Minneapolis is where my grandfathers house used to be, in the Jordan neighborhood along West Broadway, near Penn Ave. My dad grew up near James and Broadway (right behind Ken-Ray Chevrolet, if your memory goes back that far).
