AND THEY’RE MOVING TO THE EAST. LET ME CHECK BACK IN, IF I CAN, WITH FIELD METEOROLOGIST MICHAEL ARMSTRONG. STORM COMMAND OUTSIDE IN ADA. MICHAEL, I FEEL LIKE EVERY COUPLE MOMENTS WE COME UP TO YOU, YOU HAVE SOMETHING NEW TO REPORT. WHAT ARE YOU SEEING HERE IN ADA? YEAH, WE CHANGED THE ANGLE OF WHAT WE WERE LOOKING AT. WHERE THIS ONE TRAILER HAD BEEN COMPLETELY DESTROYED. THERE’S ANOTHER TRAILER ACTUALLY RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET. YOU CAN SEE RIGHT IN THERE BEHIND IT. AND THAT ONE IS STILL MOSTLY INTACT, BUT THERE’S A LOT OF INSULATION AND TREE DAMAGE RIGHT IN HERE. AND THIS MATCHES UP WITH THE TRACK WHERE WE SAW THE POWER LINES DOWN THAT ARE BACK DOWN ACROSS HIGHWAY ONE OVER TO OUR EAST. SO I FEEL PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT THIS IS TORNADO DAMAGE. DAMON. IT’S A LITTLE BIT TOUGH TO TELL. JUST, YOU KNOW, IMMEDIATELY WHEN YOU’RE WHEN YOU FIRST PULL UP ON THE SCENE. BUT BASED ON THE CIRCULATION THAT WE SAW, I HERE’S ONE THING I WILL SAY. I DON’T THINK YOU HAD A A LARGE, LONG TRACK, VIOLENT TORNADO THAT RIPPED ADA TO SHREDS. AND AND IT WOULD HAVE WENT RIGHT THROUGH ADA. RIGHT. BASED ON THE TRACK THAT WE WERE SEEING. SO WHAT WE’RE SEEING IS KIND OF SPORADIC DAMAGE HERE AND THERE THAT’S SIMILAR TO THIS, BUT YOU CAN TELL AND WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT THIS, MOBILE HOMES ARE NOT A SAFE PLACE TO SHELTER IN A TORNADO. AND I KNOW THAT THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN THEM. BUT THAT’S THIS IS WHY WE ALWAYS ADVISE YOU HAVE TO SEEK SHELTER IN A MORE SUBSTANTIAL STRUCTURE BECAUSE IT CAN. A MOBILE HOME WILL GET SCATTERED TO THE WIND VERY, VERY RAPIDLY. WE SAW, YOU KNOW, MOST OF OUR FATALITIES THAT HAPPENED LAST YEAR AT NIGHT HAPPENED WITHIN MOBILE HOMES. AND ONE RV, I RECALL. SO THIS IS JUST, YOU KNOW, IT’S TERRIBLE SITUATION WITH THESE HEADING AT NIGHT LIKE THIS. I MEAN, IT IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO DEAL WITH BECAUSE THERE THERE’S SO MANY AREAS THAT DON’T GET A TORNADO. RIGHT. BUT MAN, WHEN YOU D
