GLOUCESTER COUNTY, Va. Friday marked 10 years since an EF3 tornado tore through Gloucester County. The devastating storm destroyed Page Middle School and crushed homes in its path.
Danny Strother, who was paralyzed in the April 16, 2011, storm, died from injuries he sustained during the tornado just two weeks shy of the 10th anniversary.
âItâs very difficult. I lost my best friend,â said Christie Matthews, Strotherâs fiancee. âHe never gave up, not for a second. He fought until the bitter end.â

Power plant stacks that loomed over Arizona come down
Visual reminders of a coal-fired power plant that operated for decades December 21, 2020 by Felicia Fonseca, The Associated Press, Flagstaff AZ
Three towering concrete stacks that were the most visual reminders of a coal-fired power plant that operated for decades along the Arizona-Utah state line came down Friday. The 775-foot (236-meter) structures loomed over the Navajo Generating Station, a 2,250 megawatt plant that closed last year as natural gas became a cheaper source of energy. It was a symbol of economic stability in a region where good-paying jobs are hard to come by but also the longtime target of environmentalists for its pollution and reliance on fossil fuel and water.
