Cam model and Arkansas resident Jaden Storm was updating his followers about the tornado on Saturday. Jaden posted that he wasn’t going to be able to cam that day because of the tornado. He tweeted out that the tornado was “on the ground and heading for family.” A little over an hour later he posted that his family was safe, but there was a lot of damage to the town.
“So very thankful the tornado missed my area,” tweeted the Flirt4Free model.

This morning Jaden posted four photos that show how badly the area was hit. The pictures feature flipped cars, damaged homes, mass amounts of debris, and members of the community cleaning up the area. Jaden wrote in the photos captions about helping clean up the area.
“Humbling moment for me. Seeing how quick your life can change and it be completely out of your control,” tweeted Jaden. “Very happy to have been allowed to help clean up the neighborhood this morning that was effected by the tornado.”
