DanLarsen34 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 It’s going to be a miracle if there aren’t mass casualties from the tornado that just moved through Jefferson City. Debris is still falling out of the storm which highly suggests this was a violent tornado. This sucks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
