Dozens of people are feared dead after at least 50 tornadoes tore through eight states late Friday and early Saturday.

Among the collapsed buildings is a candle factory in Kentucky, a nursing home in Arkansas and an Amazon warehouse in western Illinois.

“It’s changed the landscape … here in Mayfield,” Kentucky State Police Lt. Dean Patterson said. “We’re seeing (destruction) that none of us have ever seen before.”

Satellite images reveal the scale of the devastation.
