Tornado in Edna Kan.; storm could reach Joplin at about 9 p.m.

(From Joplin Emergency Management)

A tornado is currently moving east of Edna Ks, along the Kansas/Oklahoma State Line. Storm is projected to enter Jasper County around 9 PM. Currently projected to line up with the south of Joplin, perhaps northern Newton County. Now is the time to seek shelter in a basement or first floor.. Find an interior room with multiple walls between you and the exterior.

Joplin,  Jasper County, and Newton County are under a tornado watch until 10 p.m.
