East Central Colorado Published 20 hour(s) ago
The National Weather Service in Denver issued a Tornado Warning for Central Lincoln County and Southeastern Elbert County in East Central Colorado. It eventually expanded to Cheyenne and Kit Carson Counties as a strong storm front passed through.
At 5:09 p.m. local law enforcement officials reported a tornado 12 miles southwest of Hugo or 16 miles south of Limon. This storm was moving northeast at 17 mph. Locations in the warning included Punkin Center and Hugo.
The safest place to be during a tornado is in a basement. Get under a workbench or other piece of sturdy furniture. If no basement is available, seek shelter on the lowest floor of the building in an interior hallway or room such as a closet. Use blankets or pillows to cover your body and always stay away from windows.
If you are in mobile homes or vehicles, evacuate them and get inside a substantial shelter. If no safe shelter is available, lie flat in the nearest ditch or other low spot and cover your head with your hands.
