VIDEO/PHOTOS: The tornado was only the beginning for one family in Seminole Wednesday night. Within a few hours, they lost a second home to the power of Mother Nature.
“Man, it’s bad,” a man is heard saying in a recorded cell phone video as the tornado neared. “Oh my god! oh my god! It’s breaking the house down!”
As the tornado they had feared for hours came upon their home at 428 West Broadway, the Carter family of 14 prepared for direct impact.
“Get in the bathroom! Get in the bathroom!” multiple family members are heard screaming in the now-shaking, incoherent cell video.
Amber tells KFOR she was in a cellar several miles away when her brother called her, telling her the tornado just destroyed his home with all their loved ones inside.
“It was super scary,” Amber said. “It was really scary because I didn’t know if they were OK or not.”
