While severe storms brought flooding and high winds to Delaware on Wednesday night, the First State did not experience a tornado.

"There has not been anything confirmed," said Amanda Lee, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, New Jersey. "There is little to no reports of any damage from the storm last night. There were some small trees down near Chambersville (north of Smyrna in New Castle County) from strong winds."
