I live off South Saunders. Big main lines down, tons of huge trees torn in half and/or blocking streets, gas main was broken off at the church down the street. I saw one house with a tree on it with minor/moderate damage and a tree that fell on a van and crushed it. Reliable Collision was basically demolished. As far as I can tell no one hurt, though.

From Wilmington St east I would say had to have been close to a tornado. Pretty bad over there
4/16/2011 5:46:49 PM
switched to wake county fire and ems feed, something about 40 people under a shelter need a bus
4/16/2011 5:48:08 PM
Yeah, the areas just North of the path of the tornado got the most hail it looks like.

pea sized hail off sawmill/six forks...never got too bad in terms of wind/lightning, but there was insulation falling out of the sky everywhere for a minute.
4/16/2011 5:57:08 PM
sounds like they just said a building collapse somewhere off of yonkers rd on the wake county feed.[Edited on April 16, 2011 at 5:58 PM. Reason : ]

4/16/2011 5:58:09 PM
^^^ I was a few miles south of you on Six Forks and the hail here was quarter sized with SEVERE wind. It appears that we were north of the tornado, which is why we caught the debris and hail.[Edited on April 16, 2011 at 6:00 PM. Reason : t]

I have been monitor 5-6 radios nonstop plus one parked on Progress Energy's Radio system. This has been one insane afternoon. Cad/Locution output was too large but will try to go through and pick outsome interesting dispatches here in few.

Drove through S. Saunders a few minutes after the tornado came through, and before anything more than a couple of cops showed up. It was really crazy there - many buildings destroyed, and debris covering the road. Insulation from the buildings were all in the trees in the median. Plus there was a series of about 5 power lines/street lights that were on the ground that, at the time, they were just having people drive right over, because that's all they could do. I think they have since closed the road.My dad and I had just eaten about 15 minutes prior after leaving the red/white game, and after dropping me off at Avent Ferry, he drove back home to Garner, and was right on that section of S. Saunders when shit was going through. The car isn't damaged too bad, but we do have a busted windshield, and one of the wipers went flying off the car.

^^^^ My sources are quite busy (obviously) but lemme see what I can find out. I believe it has been brought under control.[Edited on April 16, 2011 at 6:11 PM. Reason : jj]
