“The sky was really yellow,” said Matt Pletcher on Friday night. “And I looked out to our front yard, everything seemed fine, then we looked out the side and saw this massive tree down on top of one of our cars.” He also said a power line came down with that tree.

Over 112 severe weather reports were submitted overnight, many of which documented severe winds, hail, flash floods, and funnel clouds.
