Kenbridge/Dinwiddie Tornado
A series of powerful Supercell Thunderstorms is responsible for causing the outbreak that moved from North Carolina into southeastern Virginia, and quickly began to spawn numerous tornadoes. The first of these was spotted north of Kenbridge, VA, and caused F2 damage (see Fujita scale) on a 20-mile long path through northwestern Dinwiddie County.

Famous quotes containing the word tornado:
“The sumptuous age of stars and images is reduced to a few artificial tornado effects, pathetic fake buildings, and childish tricks which the crowd pretends to be taken in by to avoid feeling too disappointed. Ghost towns, ghost people. The whole place has the same air of obsolescence about it as Sunset or Hollywood Boulevard.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
