VIDEO: Several families, along with some close friends, started work early Monday morning by cleaning up damage caused by powerful winds the day before. The chief at the Letts Community Volunteer Fire Dept. said a strong wind ripped through the area a little before 3 p.m. Sunday. The National Weather Service inspected the damage on Monday, and reported the damage came from a 75 to 90 mph straight-line wind, not a tornado. "It looks like there were 13 residential [structures] with damage of some type, with one being destroyed," said Matt Morrow, the community's fire chief. "That's along with 13 agricultural buildings."
