(nats)


Houses are flattened and residents
shaken after the biggest of three
tornadoes


tore through the middle of town.



(SOT ANDREW CURRENCE/TORNADO SURVIVOR):


"JUST REALLY SCARED, MAN. I'VE NEVER


BEEN THROUGH ANYTHING LIKE THAT."



The string of storms plowed across the
southeastern corner of the


state...Leaving behind a 25-mile trail
of destruction.



(SOT CHAD HENDRICKSON/WITNESS): "IT'S


FRIGHTENING TO SEE ALL OF THIS AND


REALIZE YOU WERE JUST...NOT EVEN 150
FEET AWAY."



The twisters picked their spots -
obliterating some homes while leaving
their


neighbor's untouched.



Crystal Everett's house was
spared....her nerves were not.



(SOT CRYSTAL EVERETT/WITNESS): "I LOOK


AT MY KIDS AND I JUST...SEEING WHAT I


GOT TO SEE UP THERE..IN PERSON...THE
BUILDINGS WERE GONE."



(Stand-Up/Joel Brown/Suffolk, Va.)


BUILDINGS SMASHED...LIGHT-POLES
BENT...VEHICLES TOSSED UPSIDE
DOWN....THOSE


WHO SAW IT HAD ONLY MOMENTS TO TAKE
COVER.....SOME BARELY MADE IT.



(SOT GLENNA BRUNSON/SURVIVOR): "HE SAID


GET DOWN AND I GOT DOWN AND ALL THE


WINDOWS JUST BLEW OUT."



In Colonial Heights, the funnel cloud
hit the Target dead on....and the


parking lot looks like a junkyard.



(SOT CHRIS KAROL/TORNADO SURVIVOR): "AS


SOON AS I SAW THE CAR FLY UP IN THE


AIR - WE STARED HIGH-TAILING IT TO THE
BACK OF THE STORE....MAN. "



Almost 10-thousand residents are
without power and hundreds have been
forced


to find shelter.



Officials plan a full damage report
today but it will take much longer -
weeks


if not months - to repair what Mother
Nature wrecked in only seconds.

LEO TOSS STRAIGHT TO COMMERCIAL << Good morning, I'm meteorologist Leo
Hirsbrunner in the SkyTracker7 Forecast COMM Center. April showers have definitely
been abundant this month. All major
cities are reporting positive rain
totals for the April. An upper level
disturbance will push the cold front
through, then lift to the northeast
this morning. This will usher in cooler
afternoon temperatures along with a
gusty NW winds. A few morning showers
will lead to increasing sunshine as
high pressure moves in from the west.
Northwest winds will gust up to 30mph
at times. Afternoon highs will only
reach the upper 50s. Some snow flurries
are even possible in the higher
elevations. After a chilly start
Wednesday morning, a strong ridge of
high pressure will bring a return of
progressively warmer afternoon weather
from mid-week on. Highs by Friday will
approach 80 with abundant sunshine. A


cold front will bring a chance of
showers back to the area early in the
weekend TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy. High:
59 TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy and
chilly. Low: 38 For weather anytime
