Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by Adpathway(TELLER COUNTY, Colo.) — After a tornado warning was issued and expired for parts of Teller County on Tuesday afternoon, June 17, FOX21 News received several photos and videos of a funnel cloud spotted during the severe weather.
Our crews spoke with a homeowner in Divide off County Road 5, who said he believes the storm started in his backyard.
While the homeowner did not want to go on camera, our crews were allowed onto his property to get a closer look at the damage, where several downed trees were scattered across his backyard.
Our crews also spoke with Teller County Sheriff Jason Mikesell, who said the sheriff's office is mapping about 15 and a half acres of damage across the county. Sheriff Mikesell said that while there is property damage, most of what his deputies are seeing is downed trees.
According to the sheriff's office, deputies will continue to work in the areas impacted by the severe weather, and county workers have also been deployed to clear fallen trees and other debris blocking roads.
