Hi Chris - We came through an area east of Springfield on 84 today on the way back from Hausman's and saw some pretty impressive damage. Every single tree in a swath about 1/5 mile wide and from the west side of the highway as far as we could see and on the east side as far as we could see was snapped off and on the perimeter of the path all trees were stripped of all leaves. Houses and other buildings sustained severe damage from being entirely flattened to others that had the roofs ripped off and/or exterrior and interrior walls missing. Credit where credit is due, it was a devastating tornado or tornados but still nothing like other parts of the country.
