McCLEARY, Wash. (AP) - State prison work crews have cleared a large patch of overgrown land in McCleary where searchers have been looking for a girl since June of last year.

Grays Harbor County Undersheriff Rick Scott told KXRO that removing the brush gave investigators a closer look. A number of items were collected and sent to a lab for examination as possible evidence.

Scott says none of the items are sending up "red flags" in the disappearance of Lindsey Baum, but he says it's worth the closer look.

    WASHINGTON (AP) - Wind, humidity and rainfall combined precisely to create the massive killer tornado in Moore, Okla. And when they did, the awesome amount of energy released over that city dwarfed the power of the atomic bomb that leveled Hiroshima. Meteorologists contacted by The Associated Press used real time measurements to calculate the energy released during the storm's life span of almost an hour.
