Tornado in Boca Raton Thursday


A tornado touched down in a Boca Raton neighborhood Thursday, damaging at least half a dozen homes, the National Weather Service said.
The EF-0 tornado – the least intense type of twister – had estimated 70 mph winds, according to Dan Gregoria, lead forecaster with the National Weather Service in Miami.
"I was scared to death," said Alice Hitchcock, who was in her pickup truck outside her home when the tornado passed. "I had already taken my seatbelt off to get out and I put my seatbelt back on held on because this truck was moving."
