In tornado's wake, focus turns to cleanup

By Matt Hackworth and Laura Spencer

Hundreds of residents here returned from temporary overnight shelters to find their homes turned inside out. K-C-U-R's Matt Hackworth and Laura Spencer visited two northland neighborhoods that seemed to bear the brunt of the storm.
