Lots of articles, photos and aerial videos here:
Link: https://www.daytondailynews.com/ (Snips) Tornadoes were reported in Darke, Mercer, Miami and Montgomery counties, according to weather radio spotters.
Ohio Task Force One has mobilized a search and rescue team in Montgomery County. Local hospitals said they are treating injuries, but exact numbers were not available early Tuesday morning. Widespread damage has been reported in the Miami Valley. Schools, homes and businesses have been damaged or destroyed. Tens of thousands are without power, emergency shelters have been opened and Montgomery County residents are being asked to conserve water. Search and rescue is on-going and will take considerable time. Lots of folks will be homeless tonight and we wish them luck on finding shelter.  ........ ........

20. Same system went through here and oklahoma..We got

flooding and they had deaths. After the storm passes, it is easy to forget that the next state over is going to get clobbered... 
Here the forecasters are pretty awesome..Live and with trained spotters out sending pics and videos, I don't see any reasons why people can't seek shelter or move away from high water...Ya know, making plans ahead of time if you can... |
