Carrie Underwood's Revelation That Family Had to Take Shelter From Tornado Has Fans Reaching Out

"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."

Underwood also discussed the storm on Twitter, sharing a link to ways people could help. "Sending my love to Nashville!" she wrote. "I am praying for all of those affected by the terrible storm."
