\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTHANK YOU ALEXIS. TODAY WE HAD ANOTHER EXCLUSIVE LOOK AT THE DEVASTATION IN LONDON FROM KY NEWS CHOPPER. WE COULD SHOW YOU WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW COMPARED TO WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE A DAY AND A HALF AFTER THE TORNADO RAVAGED THE AREA. THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN IS OUR VIEW FROM CHOPPER EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. THE RIGHT SIDE IS FRIDAY. THIS IS HIGH ABOVE LAUREL COUNTY. AS WE\u2019RE APPROACHING THE CITY OF LONDON, YOU CAN SEE JUST THE MASSIVE AMOUNT OF DEBRIS ON SUNDAY HAS LARGELY BEEN CLEARED AWAY BY FRIDAY, A TESTAMENT TO THE HARD WORK OF THE RESIDENTS AND VOLUNTEERS IN THE AREA. MOVING ON NOW TO A NEIGHBORHOOD CLOSE TO THE LONDON AIRPORT. WHAT YOU SEE ON THE LEFT IS THE RUBBLE OF WHAT WAS ONCE A HOUSE, AND IS NOW JUST AN EMPTY SLAB FOUNDATION IN THAT SAME NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU CAN SEE THIS HOUSE WITH AN ABOVE GROUND POOL HAS BEEN FLATTENED, AND DAYS LATER MOST OF THE DEBRIS AND THE POOL IS GONE. THE RED CAR UP IN THE CORNER IS LEFT BEHIND. ACROSS I-75, ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD DESTROYED BY THE POWERFUL TORNADO. YOU CAN SEE THE REMNANTS OF THIS HOUSE NEARLY BURIED THE CARS PARKED NEXT TO IT. THE RUBBLE OF THE HOUSE IS GONE. THOSE CARS ARE STILL THERE. AND HERE\u2019S A NEIGHBORHOOD APPROACHING THE AIRPORT AGAIN. YOU SEE THE STARK DIFFERENCE IN THE AM\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
