CHARLOTTE COUNTY- A tornado ripped through parts of North Beach Road in Charlotte County leaving a path of destruction.
Smashed windows, roofless homes and trees uprooted everywhere is the scene at Manasota Key in Charlotte County today.
An E-F 1 tornado whisked onto the beach and over Desoto Road and other streets.
Hundreds were without power early Tuesday. Charlotte County Fire and EMS Public Education Coordinator Dee Hawkins Garland says no injuries are reported, but there’s a lot of structural damage.
The National Weather Service says the two tornados were short lived. But Charlotte County was never under a tornado warning.
