Once Williams and her son were in the tub, the tornado lifted the two up into the air, with them still in it, spun it around in the air and put it back down in the woods, without injury.
Afterward, the tornado continued on in the northeast direction. removing the roof and the back of her home.
The story caught the attention of several news outlets as people are amazed by the events. Jason Hansford, a senior meteorologist, said that except for some cuts and bruises, the woman was unharmed. But he did say that she was emotionally shaken.
