Shelly Johnson, 50, was also killed when a tree struck her home less than a mile away.

The twister was on the ground for about five minutes and ripped through the 2,000-person town about 40 miles east of Syracuse. “While there was this focused corridor of convergent enhanced EF1 tornado damage, other scattered tree damage could be found throughout the area associated with damaging winds up to 70 mph from the line of severe storms,” NWS meteorologists wrote.

Emily and Kenni were on the first floor with their mother, Kayleigh, who survived the storm.
