CAMPO, Colo. (AP) — No injuries have been reported from tornadoes that swept through southeastern Colorado.

The first tornado touched down near Pritchett Monday and another touched down near Campo. The storm moved across Baca County for a total of about three hours, producing tennis ball size hail that broke windows in homes and cars. Telephone poles in open areas were also knocked down.

Storm chasers captured dramatic video of one of the funnel clouds near Springfield.
