Tornado Hits Near My Home

Last night, a tornado touched down in parts of Little Rock before traveling up US 167 to my hometown and beyond.
Luckily none of my family members were injured and their respective home received no damage.
Here is a decent article relaying the damage, along with photos and videos. The footage is raw so you have to sit through some boring stuff. The power is also out so everything is really dark and it’s hard to see the damage in some of the videos.
Make sure you watch the first video listed. Notice the light pole in the middle of the parking lot…it’s there, then the tornado passes over it and 3 seconds later it’s gone. If you watch it enough times like I have, you can actually make out the light pole as it falls.
Crazy. I don’t miss tornadoes.
So far, only one person was killed as a result of this storm, and that was in an automobile accident. Still, a lot of people suffered damage, so pray for them.
