State officials were on the ground in Autauga County Saturday surveying tornado damage
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - and talking with victims’ families. Seven people died as a result of Thursday’s storm.“Our hearts are broken for the fatalities that have been in the community, and we went out in some of those areas and talked with some of the family members, and it’s just heartbreaking,” said Alabama House Speaker Nathaniel Ledbetter.
“Today, we’re starting to process volunteers in and get them out to the different areas,” Baggott said.“It’ll be several months before the people are able to actually say our property is cleaned up,” Baggott said. It will be a long road ahead for these families, but the state of Alabama promises to have their back.
Preliminary reports from the National Weather Service show the tornado in Autauga County to be at least an EF-3.
