First reports say that there is substantial material damage, but no or few casualties - let's hope there are none!
Best wishes,

At least he wasn't nekkid!

(For those not familiar with the speech of the American South, we make a distinction between 'naked' and 'nekkid' - even though they sound about the same. 'Naked' means having no clothes on. 'Nekkid' means having no clothes on and being 'up to something!' - Courtesy of Jeff Foxworthy)
