Residents of St. Charles County were shaken during a thunderstorm and tornado, during the evening of May 30. The storm swept through the Harvester area around 8 p.m. knocking down trees and powerlines. An estimated 100,000 residents are without power as of 10 a.m. Saturday. Francis Howell North’s graduation ceremony that was scheduled for today has been postponed to unknown date due to storm damage at the Family Arena. While there is quite a bit of property damage to houses and businesses, there have been no casualties reported. (Shot by: Ashleigh Jenkins) For a mobile friendly version of the gallery, click here.
