A series of powerful storms hit the central and southern U.S. over the Memorial Day holiday weekend. – Strong storms with damaging winds and baseball-sized hail pummeled Texas on Tuesday, leaving more than 1 million businesses and homes without power as much of the U.S.
Barnsley was hit on Sunday by a powerful tornado that packed winds up to 165 mph and tore a destructive path across nearly 36 miles of Kentucky, the National Weather Service said. In Barnsley, the tornado tore through a section of the storm-weary community. A home next to Johnson's trailer was leveled, another was knocked off its foundation and the roof was ripped off another home.
“You start hearing a roar and then the entire house started shaking," he recalled."The power started flickering and the windows just shattered. And then all of sudden you just feel the wind and pressure and this roar just ripping through the house and it starts tugging on you and trying to drag you out.”
