Carrie Underwood's Revelation That Family Had to Take Shelter From Tornado Has Fans Reaching Out
A powerful storm traveled through middle Tennessee on Monday night, dropping several tornadoes [...]
"I'm like texting people I know, and I'm like asking my husband if everybody's good," Underwood told Today hosts Savannah Guthrie and Carson Daly. "He said he had to go upstairs at like 2 a.m. and grab the boys and take them down to a little safe room in our house.
"I was like, 'I bet everybody is crying.' It's 2 a.m., freaking out, so it was scary."
