Tornado warnings catch Louisvillians by surprise; dinner gets cold [News]

Damage initially seems to lie through the middle of Jefferson County with Churchill Downs reportedly suffering severe damage to horse barns.

What started out as an average summer day with a 40 percent chance of thunderstorms, quickly turned into an atypical summer day with an unusual and seemingly unannounced tornado outbreak with very little lead time.

Initially, a very small thunderstorm turned tornadic, crossing the county from west to east. Several witnesses reported funnel clouds as the storm traveled across the county.
