Tornado Hits Sun N Fun Event

GlassPilotNews

A tornado hit the Sun N Fun Event today and there was damage to aircraft. Reports are streaming in…
This just in from the Sun N Fun staff:
We still have no power or Internet. We know that there are downed power lines and trees in spots. We’ve heard that CNN is reporting a possibly collapsed building but WE CANNOT CONFIRM THIS. We’re at the SnF office and in this area the buildings are all intact. We know at least a few planes have been flipped by the wind. We’ll get you updates when we can. Cell service is spotty.

Watching the Sky over Lakeland

GlassPilotNews

This morning I headed to Lakeland from Sarasota to work the Sun N Sun Event. Half way there I looked at the radar and forecast and turned around and went back. About 5 hours later the storm hit. I had been watching the radar all day and this is what it looked like.
