reports. what i have seen on the radar and reports there was a tornado in fort knox that did head toward shepherdsville. tornado warnings everywhere up and down i-65. i got caught in some pretty severe wind and rain along with hail up to softball size. the wind gusts had to be 60 to 70 miles per hour. made it down to elizabeth town and all the hail back up the blue grass parkway with a lot of damaging wind. some additional hail and a lot of heavy rain. shepard: it is astounding to see these tornadoes stretch across such a large swath of our country. when you talk about going from the gulf coast all the way to the great lakes, this is not a normal, early spring or in this case late winter outbreak. this is something the likes of which on a single day we haven t seen as long as i have been covering the news.

we would know by now. it was not one of the big ones. i am sure they will be doing a lot of cleanup throughout the day tomorrow. we have a lot of huge hill. as big as baseball, softball size hail. let s talk about oklahoma. afternoon, this is where the dramatic pictures came from. a helicopter was flying around and flew alongside a 200 on the ground. we had one of the big tornado is. we had a huge one like in tuscaloosa in and joplin. this time it did not hit a poplin populated city. it has taken about four lives. it did not go through a city. we knew we would have big, bad storms tried this had a small, rural town. there are some of the amazing
