HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) — At least two tornadoes were spotted in rural areas of central and eastern Nebraska Sunday as powerful thunderstorms moved across the state.

The National Weather Service said one tornado was confirmed near Upland Sunday afternoon. Less than three hours later, another tornado was confirmed near Osceola.

No significant damage was immediately reported with either tornado, which were only on the ground briefly.

The storms also produced hail up to 1-inch in diameter, strong winds and heavy rain.
