At least 21 people were killed when storms and tornadoes ripped through Kentucky and Missouri on Friday.
One of the tornadoes spun through the St. Louis neighborhood of Gateway Pundit owner and founder Jim Hoft, but thankfully, his home was spared, other than downed trees in the yard.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear confirmed that at least 14 people were killed in his state, and he expects the death toll to rise in the coming days.
“Kentucky, we’re starting today with the tough news that we lost at least 14 of our people to last night’s storms, but sadly, this number is expected to grow as we receive more information. Please pray for all of our affected families,” Beshear wrote in a post on X. more
There was a tornado in the western KY county I’m in to the northeast of us. We had to go to our safe room downstairs twice last night. And were without power until about 3 hours ago, almost 24 hours. AFAIK, there is damage all over the state but I think most of the deaths, if not all of them, were in central/eastern KY. But I’m still catching up on the news so that may be wrong.
The Somerset KY tornado radar track looked like a direct hit was coming my way, it went less than a mile south of my house however. Worrisome indeed. My church building wasn’t so lucky. I am thankful we’re ok.
