Tornado's Rampage in Whispering Winds: A Year Later

One year after an EF two tornado devastated Whispering Winds neighborhood in Longwood, survivors recall the five-minute storm that caused major damage but no serious injuries. With winds up to 120 mph, the tornado collapsed a house, wrecked roofs and fences, and shattered windows. Neighbors huddled in closets and interior rooms as the storm passed, emerging to find their homes in ruins. Today, most roofs are replaced, but some scars remain. Emergency managers advise having a plan ready for sudden twisters, seeking lower-level interior rooms away from windows and signing up for local alerts.
