Glad you got this new thread going.
Here’s a quote from CNN latest update:
(CNN) — A family of three and four others were killed in Arkansas and the Tennessee Secretary of State was forced to close some polling places in the western part of the state after several destructive tornadoes tracked through the area Tuesday evening.
The family of two adults and one child was killed in Pope County, Arkansas, where five people were also transported to local hospitals, Pope County Judge Jim Ed Gibson told CNN.
I pray for those in the path of these storms.
We are under a watch in soutwestern Ohio and are due to get storms in a few hours. I am hoping we don’t get hit with a tornado. Thanks for the updates.
TANKS a bunch for the thread,,,
NWS radar ain’t pretty...:0/
Prayers Up...
Erie County, New York:
We had a tornado just above our home last night, which thankfully, did not touch down. I had just gone to bed, and was about to get up and see what kind of giant motorized something or other was going down my street, when I realized what sounded like hail unlike anything I’ve ever heard before was pounding on our roof. The noise never got to the “approaching train” degree, but close to it.
The tornado lowered over a flat area behind the house, and then rose up higher and disappeared. It was confirmed on the weather station later, and they say we may have more. This has never been a tornado area before.
Prayers for those who have been hit.
Gonna be a long night. Russell County and Adair County, KY under a tornado warning till 11:30 CST. Looks like the same cell that hit Nashville. These storms are moving N.E.
Sitting through torando sirens right now.
