danger. we re still seeing storms with only five tornado warnings. that seems like a lot, but earlier tonight y had 29 separate tornado warnings for separate storms producing tornadoes on the ground. finally calming down because the heat of the day is gone. there s henriville, farther to the east, same tornado, but almost wiped out a town to the east. we also have incredible new video out of a tornado on the eastern section here of kentucky. kind of the coal fields of kentucky. west liberty, kentucky. this was by far in my opinion, watching the doppler radar, the strongest tornado on radar. doesn t mean it was the strongest one on the ground, but the rotation was the strongest and tightest, speeds going one way to another way were at least 100 miles per hour. this on radar looks like an ef-3 or ef-4 tornado. now with the first video out, driving into west liberty, you can see the damage. yes, it s dark, but you can get a feel for the buildings knocked down. really, a police
strongest tornado on radar. doesn t mean it was the strongest one on the ground, but the rotation was the strongest and tightest, speeds going one way to another way were at least 100 miles per hour. this on radar looks like an ef-3 or ef-4 tornado. now with the first video out, driving into west liberty, you can see the damage. yes, it s dark, but you can get a feel for the buildings knocked down. really, a police car that was damaged completely. and more tornado damage from cars being just things tossed onto them. people are out there, search and rescue. the national guard has been called out. 50 members going out to help in the clean up and rescue tonight. it s been a deadly day across the country today. we don t know the number of casualties, but we know more than a dozen so far confirmed by cnn, and now that it s dark, people still missing, these numbers will go up by morning, and we ll have those for you as the night falls and as the day comes up tomorrow. anderson?

this late hour and typically storms die off by now, we still have 19 different cells, 19 different storms that are rotating enough or have tornados on the ground to have tornado warnings on them. 19 separate storms. these storms go all wait from louisiana to florida to almost atlanta, georgia. one now crossing the border from atlanta. a little farther to the north on up, the third storm of the day for chattanooga right there, tornado warning on that, especially just off to the east. and then farther on up we re seeing pretty big weather still in eastern kentucky. that may be where the biggest tornado was all day in west liberty, kentucky. it stayed on the ground almost 60 miles as a big tornado and then moved into west virginia proper. farther up to the north as you d expect, the rain back farther off to the west, though. this is what caused this weather. it is snowing. in fact blizzard-like conditions across parts of wisconsin. that s the cold air. down to the south, that s
