Please don't tell me you're using a legit digital camera still in 2021.

Mayfield is totally devastated. Terrible to see.

Edwardsville IL Amazon warehouse got hit. At least two fatalities.

Arkansas nursing home was hit. At least one fatality there.

Terrible night for people on the path of these storms. We had two tornados go through the St. Louis area, roughly two hurs apart. That first one hid Edwardsville, and the second slowed news crews from getting to the scene, and possibly some out of town emergency response.

11:20 a.m.: Beshear expects death toll to pass 70​

The death toll from the storm that ripped through Kentucky last night could be worse than initially believed, Gov. Andy Beshear said at a morning press conference in Mayfield.

Beshear at around 5 a.m. estimated that the death toll would climb past 50 and would likely fall between 70 and 100 casualties. At a press conference six hours later, he said he now believes more than 100 people may have been killed.

1:30 p.m.: Beshear speaks with Biden amid push for federal aid​

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear confirmed Saturday afternoon that he'd spoken with President Joe Biden about the devastating tornadoes, along with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell.

A readout of the call provided by the White House said the president expressed his condolences and "indicated that he has directed FEMA and other Federal agencies to provide the speediest assistance possible to impacted communities." The two sides will remain in touch, the White House said.

Kentucky's two senators and six representatives in Congress, meanwhile, sent a letter to the White House encouraging Biden and other federal officials to provide additional assistance, noting that at least 50 deaths have been reported. The National Guard and Kentucky State Police have been mobilized, the letter noted, but storm damage has hampered their response.
