50 trapped in Mich. FedEx building collapse during tornado

PORTAGE, Mich. — A severe tornado in Portage, Mich., led to a FedEx facility collapsing Tuesday night, trapping about 50 people inside, according to officials.

They said downed wires in the building must be removed before first responders can enter and rescue the people trapped inside, MLive.com reported.

It was not immediately clear whether the incident resulted in major injuries.

Footage shared on social media showed significant damage done to the facade of the building, with large sections appearing to have been destroyed by the winds. Trees along the road near the facility were also shown strewn about the ground.

The tornado was one of several witnessed in the Midwest on Tuesday, as a system of deadly winds in Oklahoma traveled east overnight.

Earlier in the day, the National Weather Service issued a tornado emergency for Michigan.

The larger Portage community was heavily affected by the storm, with multiple injuries and damage reported at a mobile park in the area.

Residents impacted by the tornado were relocating to a local senior center and church, officials said. Injuries and damage were also reported in nearby Kalamazoo, where roughly 26,000 customers were without power as of 9:39 p.m., according to the Consumers Energy outage map.

Tornado watches have been extended until 11 p.m. in the region, and Portage Mayor Patricia Randall issued an emergency declaration on Tuesday evening to obtain resources from the federal and state governments.

For 5-7-2024 Five confirmed tornados in my county in SW Ohio alone!! I don't know how many the state got?? That should put Ohio over the 60 mark for tornados this year.

 

[Countrymouse]

...back from chasing down my cat and getting him in and eating supper.....

Still listening to / watching Ryan Hall

"multiple destructive tornadoes" in Tennessee

"We're still in the middle of this--lots of rotating super-storms"

"lots of convection in Alabama now moving up toward Chattanooga

(plus looks like all of Kentucky was just over-run by tornadoes all day)

(plus there were tornadoes in RHODE ISLAND, and states further north that NEVER have tornadoes. I heard Ryan report around 5 pm of "Grape-fruit size hail" somewhere up north.)

This looks like a day for the history books, as some days have been in the past...............

Whole LINE of storms moving into Arkansas from Oklahoma

 

[Countrymouse]

Pray for Ryan Hall....he's coughing a lot and has been at this almost constantly for two days now..........

Tornado (big one) ON THE GROUND in Huntsville, AL.

One spotted also on ground across the line in Lafayette, GA

 

[Countrymouse]

TN, AL, GA, AR, MO, IL, IO, KY, VA, FI--then further north the other day into MI --


Yeah, I'd say this qualifies as a tornado "outbreak".
