Yeah, it’s bad. That number may go up some too; they have some reports of unconfirmed fatalities with no numbers attached to them yet.
Newport News Daily Press reports three dead this morning from the storm in Glocester VA.
Up in Bertie County south of Ahoskie first responders and volunteers are going door to door to check on residents. We’re lucky down in Wilson. We had a few homes destroyed out by Wiggins Mill, and a twister went through a business area doing some damage around the Forest Hills Rd / Tarboro St intersection. The CVS drugstore there took some serious damage. There have been some injuries, but so far it looks like we’ve escaped with property damage... no loss of lives.
