Mayfield PD: “Last night storms and catastrophic tornado was a stressful night for our citizens. Approximately 90% of the city is utter destruction. We have reason to believe that approximately 78 people was killed in last night storms in Mayfield. This toll is supposed to rise.”
The storm that spawned the damage in Jonesboro, Mayfield, Burton and now currently Southeast of Louisville, has broken the record for the longest lasting tornado consistently on the ground with approximately 317 miles on the ground, lasting between 5-6 hours. Insane.

Saddened and stunned by the passing of Otis Anderson Jr. Tough and gritty, fun and full of laughter, he made such a positive impact on our university, community, and our locker room. He was an unbelievable teammate. My condolences go out to the entire UCF family. 🙏
