A blessing. i want to go to polo sandoval at the scene of the amazon warehouse collapse. >> you have to see some of the images that were shot over the weekend to get a true sense of what happened here. you see how the ef-3 tornado cut through the amazon shipping center. you know dozens escaped alive. six of them did not. a 20-year-old navy veteran named clayton cope, he served his country honorably for six years and return to southwest illinois to work alongside his father as a maintenance mechanic. worked for a kaccounter that worked for amazon. he was in that warehouse on friday night. last ...

Now, it's up to other weather service offices to say exactly how long it was. the record is 219 miles. so this is already 124 and is going to go up higher. this easily may be the longest tornado in our country's history we've observed and yes, in december. i'll get more to that in a second. we don't know the intensity. it's rare to get ef-4 and ef-5. it's at least an ef-3 in mayfield. a couple more, the one that hit the amazon facility in illinois. on the scales, it goes up to five. that's the highest. we haven't had a five in almost eight and a half years. we have had significant ef-5's befor...

Kentucky's had at least 64 deaths. this one already is the third deadliest tornado in kentucky's history. look at all the other months, may and march dates are on that list. we don't yet know how strong the one tornado was that went through mayfield. they've out doing the damage surveys. you can imagine they have to go along the entire 200 mile path and try to see what the peak was because that's what they'll rate it. the one that hit the amazon facility was rated at ef-3, 165 miles per hour winds. that's severe damage on our scale, almost into the extreme damage category. when you see the pic...

But at this hour, it is still not clear how many people may have been in that warehouse when the ef-3 tornado hit there. a shift change was happening at the time, officials say. and right here in kentucky, where i am from here in mayfield, to bowling green and beyond, we are seeing the disaster grow worse as well. there is just so much heartache all around. at least 70 people are feared dead in this wonderful state. the governor warns that number could top 100. children are among the 12 known dead in warren county. and in tennessee tonight, one person is missing in lake court. four people are ...

Church. what i have shown you so far this morning is so far one block. i can tell you this goes on throughout the entire town. we're in kind of the downtown area of mayfield and i have not seen a single building at least in downtown mayfield that survives this, probably i don't know repair. if you go a mile from here, there are some areas, residential areas that look completely untouched. if you go in the other direction we haven't been able to get to just yet, those houses are wiped off down to just the slab. that is likely indicative of a ef-3, excuse me, ef 4 or ef-5 tornado. we haven't had...
