On Friday Evening around 710 PM, a tornado E3 touched down about about 300
to 400 yards from the front of my home. I had no damage to my home or
property, just some twigs and pine cones in my yard and deck. It did take
out a building in a field across from me and several trees at the beginning of
my street. Prior to getting to my area, it came across my brother’s home
and did extensive damage to it and it will probably be condemned.
My
brother’s home is about 3 miles or less as the crow flies from me. The
following video shows some of the damage to his home. The video also
reports a 94 year old lady being thrown from her mobile home into a field.
She lives about 1/2 mile to the east of me right off of 264. She suffered
only a broken arm or leg (I believe). The power went off immediately and
came back around noon on Saturday. We are so thankful my brother and his
wife were not injured or others seriously injured. My house did shake as
it went by. More chances for severe weather is forecast for Tuesday and
Wednesday, with today and Friday having less of a chance for it.
