Storm Summary
Well our first T-storm in nearly 6 weeks produced a couple of tornados. Mainly tree damage and power lines down, no strucural damage or injuries reported. tornado followed a s-se line for 20 miles before dissipating. Tried to follow storm path too dark, rain and lightning unbelieveable! My collegue and I returned to my comm. site where we pulled up local dopplers to track the rest of storm. This has been the first major storm to hit this area since the high pressure has been in place over the gulf of mexico.
