Last night had tornadoes and thunderstorms rip through 12 states leaving over 20 people dead as more bodies are discovered and a half million people without their homes and/or power. Please check on your loved ones in these states in case you are not aware.

Also, a huge shoutout to VEC for working all night through the thunderstorms we endured here in TN and while thankfully not like these others, still caused the workers to work throughout the night and are still working today.

A new round of severe weather turned deadly on Friday with multiple tornadoes tearing across the central United States, including one that prompted an urgent and rare tornado emergency in Illinois.
