| The video attached to this report was shot near Monett by Randy Hicks. Warning: a couple of mild curse words are in the video. |
There is damage to homes and a school in Republic (see separate story).
Two homes are heavily damaged at Spokane in Christian County. The county Emergency Management director said six homes are severely damaged or destroyed in the Highlandville area, where a search and rescue was underway about 10 p.m. and roads were blocked in various places.
In McDonald County, eight miles west of Washburn, two mobile homes are heavily damaged on Missouri 90 just west of the Barry County line.
One mile south of Wheelerville, trees are down on Missouri 248 at the Barry and Stone county line.
The National Weather Service and the Greene County Office of Emergency Management received reports about homes and other buildings being damaged or destroyed north and west of Strafford. Law officers ask people to stay clear of that area so emergency vehicles will have access.
There are also reports of damage north of Ebenezer, including power lines down.
This was taken on the southeast side of Monett near Wal-Mart late Monday afternoon.
This is one of many, many photos of big hail that fell in Springfield that were submitted by KY3 News viewers.
