This may be the wrong board (honestly don't know) to ask this off topic question. But could someone tell me if anyone was hurt (or killed) in the tornado on 231, north of Troy last week?

I noticed a lot of damage while driving down to the coast on the 27th/28th but it was too dark to see much. Got a better look yesterday as I was returning home and saw a lot of trees with their tops missing and at least one home pretty much destroyed.

With all the mobile homes in that area it could have been a lot worse.

No deaths. Some minor injuries. There were some people trapped inside. Some very lucky people for sure.

Thanks Hemi Man. From the looks of it a lot of people were lucky it stayed as high as it did and from the looks of the damage...hit and went back up

Thanks for the concern. I live 45 miles west of Troy and consider myself fortunate that the storm passed us by.
