34 deaths in the USA while violent storms move to the east coast

A tornado tore last night through a neighborhood in Villa Ridge, Missouri, the trees on uprooted, smashed vehicles and torn the roofs from several houses.

The National Weather Service measurement, Ben Herzog, had now evaluated structural damage in the neighborhood in order to estimate the wind speeds and classify the storm, which was later identified as EF2.

Joy Azddou and her family hardly made it into the basement before the Tornado hit her house in Villa Ridge. Her home was the first duke to be judged to damage.

The windows broke within seconds after safety and ruined around them.

“We just shaped ourselves.

Azddou was aware of the Tornado warning, but assumed that it would be nothing more than strong winds or hail.

“We get a lot of tornado warnings in Missouri. But when the wind took up and the strength flickered, she knew that it was time to act.

“Then I said:” Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go – all in the basement. “And we hardly made it down there before the windows blow,” she said.

Now, says Azddou without tenant insurance, she doesn’t know how to start over.

“It feels unreal.” We have very little at first and we are only afraid.

On the other side of the street, another family was faced with a terrifying reality.

Isaac Purnell said that he initially dismissed his wife’s concerns when she suggested covering her. Moments later the Tornado tore through her house when her 1-year-old slept.

“As soon as I saw that the roof went out, I felt the whole air.” The whole room door blew off and blew me into the wall.

The storm killed 12 people across the state.
