DENVER (AP) - Storms that produced hail the size of ping pong and golf balls and tornadoes damaged homes and knocked down power lines on Colorado’s Eastern Plains.
The Washington County Sheriff’s Office says two large out buildings were destroyed there and over 20 homes in the Platner and Otis area suffered severe hail damage Tuesday. It says local officials and the National Weather Service are assessing the damage there on Wednesday.
Up to two tornadoes were reported near Akron and another was seen in Adams County, where some power poles were knocked over. Another tornado was reported on the ground in Yuma County, where a number of roads remained closed because of storm damage.
