More Twister Photos

More pictures coming in from Thursday's storm and these again show the power packed by those 70-mile per hour winds, whether the National Weather Service classifies the funnel cloud reports as a twister or not.



I'd like to thank Jeff Stull for this photo he snapped in Uniontown; even without seeing the traditional signature "funnel cloud" there's no mistaking the ominous nature of those pitch-black skies and heavy clouds overhead.




This photo really captures the essence of what residents in Holmes County experienced Thursday evening:




Liz Duncan took these pictures around 4:45 p.m. about a half-hour after Candy and Scott Dickey snapped their shot in New Franklin.




At this point one death has been reported; Marion, Ohio just north of Columbus. The worst of the damages here seem to be centered on local businesses and Black River High School in southeast Medina County.





The Akron Beacon Journal had a great photo this morning as firefighters comforted a cow trapped in the debris of a barn collapse in Lodi.


You'll find additional coverage on AkronNewsNow including interviews with Scott Dickey, who eyewitnessed the funnel cloud as it passed over his home.
