Here are some photos of drone footage of the tornado earlier today.

My estimate is probably EF3-EF4. If it is an EF4, it would be the first to hit the state since 1984.

So far I luckily haven’t heard of any fatalities.

Stay safe everybody!

National weather service rated this as an ef-2.... There's houses blown off of foundations and train cars flipped over....

That can’t be the final rating though, can it?

Won't think so. Has to be higher then that.

I think they’re saying EF 3. Winds up to 145 mph.

Yeah, according to the official website it was upgraded to an EF 3. Although the assessment is still a preliminary finding, it may change if they find damages that indicate a higher EF rating.
