"OK WOW. It got real dark and the tornado went past maybe a mile from our house. My ding dong neighbors are goin to walk to the beach after they say the tornado pass.
It is worse here than predicted.
I guess I'll keep posting as anything happens since it gives me something to do.
Any locals need to tune into WJHG. The news station people actually had to get into the hallway. Somne dove under there desks. 4 homes flattened 1 dead already.
Front beach road, Thomas drive closed. Search and rescues in progress.
Locals tune to wjhg."

"There is a second death not yet confirmed. Trees down, awnings gone, carports already being blown away. This is all within 4 miles of me or closer.
Only one radio station still on the air. Tv station lost power but back up."
