Tornados in Flagstaff, Arizona

[Jeff Colburn]

Earlier this month a series of tornadoes hit Flagstaff, Arizona, and the surrounding area. You probably saw the damaged homes on the news. The eight tornadoes rated between EF1 and EF3, and created a lot of damage. One of these tornadoes was on the ground for 30 miles. Some of the damage included:

* Dozens of homes destroyed or damaged.
* 28 train cars were derailed near Bellemont.
* Highway 17 was closed due to debris from an RV sales lot. 35 RVs and trailers were destroyed; a $600,000 loss.

Here's a picture of trees north of Flagstaff, damaged by one of the tornadoes.

Photo looks a little dark. However it does tell the tornado's story well.
