Emergency officials say a possible tornado has left a trail of damage on the Georgia coast.
No injuries were reported after a funnel cloud was spotted Friday afternoon on Whitemarsh Island, east of Savannah. The Chatham County Emergency Management Agency said in a news release it was still assessing the damage Friday evening.
News outlets report the storm damaged roofs at homes and a school, uprooted trees and knocked down power lines before heading offshore.
The National Weather Service planned to send a team to the scene Saturday to confirm the intensity of the storm.
The local emergency management agency said no storm sirens were activated when the apparent tornado struck because the weather service had not issued any watches or warnings.
