Really bad damage. Semis overturned on I-4 have shut this Interstate down. Now open one lane each way, but law enforcement asking people not to travel. Many power outages have knocked out the traffic signals, making driving extremely hazardous.
Governor just finished news conference and he is now heading down to survey the damage. Some hospitals are running flashes across the bottom of the TV screen to avoid them as they are now full.
Tornadoes went north and south of us here near Disney. Think we are done now, though.
Rescue workers apparently are doing the New Orleans type of search... if they find a body, they are marking homes with an "X".
We are praying for the victims and their families.
*On Edit~ Weather forecasters have estimated a single supercell that produced an F3-F4 tornado that did most of the damage. Official tornado designation must wait for NWS people to actually get to the damaged area and come up with their "official" assessment.
Many mobile home parks damaged/destroyed (one trailer has completely disapeared), but no word on any RV parks hit.
