THIS MOBIL HOME WAS HIT BY THE TORNADO THAT PASSED THROUGH JACKSON COUNTY FRIDAY AFTERNOON ABOUT 2:30. THE COUPLE AND THEIR 6 YEAR OLD HAD LEFT IT A FEW MINUTES EARLIER AND WENT INTO THE BASEMENT OF THE NEARBY HOME OF A PARENT. THEY WERE NOT INJURED. ABOUT 30 BUILDINGS WERE DEMAGED BY THE STORM IN A PATH FROM SPRINGBROOK TO THE EDGE OF BELLEVUE. MAQUOKETA RECEIVED NO WIND DAMAGE AND JUST OVER AN INCH OF RAIN. ANOTHER INCH FELL THIS (SATURDAY MORNING). BOTH THE SHERIFF AND BELLEVUE FIRECHIEF SAID THE STORM FRIDAY WAS THE WORST THEY HAVE SEEN IN JACKSON COUNTY. NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED. EARLY ESTIMATED DAMAGE .. OVER A MILLION DOLLARS.
