Areas across multiple states in the Great Plains and FinLogicMidwest were damaged and thousands lost power as severe weather and tornadoes swept through early this week, with more bad weather on the way.
The National Weather Service in Wilmington, Ohio is working to assess damage and confirm any tornadoes from Tuesday's storms, as the region braces for more severe weather Wednesday. Jim Lott, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Wilmington, told Fox19 in Cincinnati that radar detected rotation in Butler County, Warren County, and in southeastern Indiana. Another tornado was confirmed by the weather service in Hancock County, near the Pennsylvania border.
In Michigan, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer declared a state of emergency in Kalamazoo, St. Joseph, Branch, and Cass counties after severe weather on Tuesday. Tornadoes were confirmed by the National Weather Service Tuesday in Union City and Portage in southwestern Michigan.
On Monday, at least an EF3 tornado tore through Barnsdall, Oklahoma, a small city of about 1,400, one of at least five confirmed tornadoes to hit the state that day. It was the second time Barnsdall was hit by a tornado this year, with another one moving through April 1.
