Storm damage at Berry College

Strong storms moved through Northeast Alabama and Northwest Georgia this (Friday, March 3rd) afternoon.  The National Weather Service issued a Tornado Warning shortly before 3 PM for parts of neighboring Floyd and Gordon Counties and a severe Thunderstorm warning was in place for Walker County.  The severe weather has passed, but there is a lot of cleanup from the storms.  Reports of trees and power lines down were coming in from around the area.  In neighboring DeKalb County, Alabama, officials reported that a tornado was confirmed at Dutton on Sand Mountain.  In Floyd County, there were multiple trees down and damage being reported on the campus of Berry College.  Power outages were also being reported around the area.  The good news is that we are looking for clearing skies tonight and Saturday, Sunday and Monday will be clear, but cooler with plenty of sunshine.
