Yesterday we covered a major tornado outbreak across Illinois and Indiana.
68 tornado warnings. 8 PDS warnings. A rare Tornado Emergency. A confirmed EF3 in Kouts. 90 mph winds tearing through Streator and Dwight. Over 400,000 without power at the peak.
And still, zero confirmed deaths at this hour. People got the warnings and took shelter. That's remarkable.
The Y'all Squad is already on the ground in Streator delivering rapid relief, and thanks to you we've raised $130,000 for these communities. Tomorrow our crews push into Springfield, IL and Kouts, IN.
I have never seen a tornado do this before.
Live chaser Freddy McKinney just captured this incredibly rare corkscrew sidewinder tornado forming in Illinois. Absolutely mind-blowing footage.
A live tornado just touched down right on top of storm chaser Freddy McKinney in Illinois!
He is safe, but the funnel is literally rotating directly overhead. We are live tracking these dangerous storms right now, join us.
