Nevada County Arkansas Damage 12/20/12
Prescott, AR -

A Southwest Arkansas family is homeless after severe weather destroyed their home.

It happened early Thursday morning on Shady Grove road in Nevada County.

Homeowner Eddie Gentry and his wife say they heard a loud noise and felt their trailer raise off the ground.

He says the high winds ripped off the back wall and tore off the roof.

The couple and their two daughters were in the bedrooms and were not injured.

Emergency management officials say no other major damage has been reported.
