Hmmm... just noticed part of my blog update was missing in my last post...
MOST RECENT UPDATE: (11:59 p.m. CST):
Red Cross is evaluating the situation to see if their services will be needed.
Fewer than 1 dozen people have been transported to ALL hospitals — it is hoped that this means all other injuries are superficial. Only one in critical condition.
INTERVIEW WITH FD CHIEF:
Widespread extensive damage across the city. APD handling traffic control. Road will perhaps be open by tomorrow. Station 4 of the Fire Department was also hit.
The storm that was headed in the direction of the city seems to have died down at this point.
Mayor is on right now...
Fire Chief reminds me of Nipsey Russell.
Fire Chief - just stated this was a tornado. So, I guess it’s “official”? Anyone know if the Weather Service has said anything, and if that’s the “official” body to say so?
*NOTE: This interview was apparently not with the Fire Chief as he was a different person than the one speaking now. The notes above were from earlier tonight.
Very lucky? No injuries or fatalities on a possible F2/F3.
Praise God.
