According to SJFCFR dispatch a tornado touch down around saint johns river area Northern St Johns County. Happen between 255-300 am. I'm not sure if the structure fire has to do with the twister I heard they paged a house fire a few mints the twister touched down.

Yes it was a pretty bad storm last night. I live in the mandarin area and boy was it popping. Went and got my scanner to hear the tornado warning that went to 3:15 am, I also heard of a mutual aid call at the county line. It was near the rest area on I-95 in St. Johns JFRD was responding and SJCFD was also on scene. I think I heard them cancel Jax fire. Busy night glad you are okay.

I think Jax 42 took 4 people to the hospital. It was crazy night. I had 1 radio going I had other stuff unplugged.I didn't see nothing about the twister touch down in the paper.
