Scalia said several homes were damaged and as many as a dozen people were displaced, but no injuries were reported.
Andy Quinn's home was one of the first hit.
He says he was in the living room as the storm winds ripped off a chunk of his home's front wall.
"It sounded like a bomb went off in the living room. And as you can see it looks like a bomb went off in the living room," he said.
Morgantown resident Cathy Riffey said she had about a five-minute warning to get to a safe space.
The tornado warning blared on her phone at around 6 p.m. Tuesday, giving her enough time to seek shelter in a bathroom inside her townhome.

Her car had been tossed out of its parking spot in the Valley Ponds neighborhood lot and pushed into the grass next to the clubhouse and pool.
"My car was just over there," she said pointing across the parking lot to a section of grass next to a playground. "Everyone else's (car) was parked in a nice in a row. And mine was picked up (by the twister)."
Damage reported after tornado sweeps through Morgantown
On Wednesday morning, speed bumps that were once in the road had been blown into the grass, and chairs from the neighborhood's pool were scattered across houses that were blocks away. A black iron fence that once surrounded the pool was bent and torn into sections.
"There was a shed back here (by the pool)," said Tom Taylor. "That's gone. I don't know where the shed is."
Workers with the NWS will be in the neighborhood Wednesday to try to assess the strength of the storm.
Residents say they recall one strong storm hitting the area about six years ago, but it doesn't compare to the twister that hit Tuesday night.
Nearly a third of the homes in the neighborhood had some sort of damage, from collapsed roofs, to peeled-off siding and shattered windows.

Cars throughout the neighborhood were also damaged.
Amazingly, no one was hurt.
"Very thankful for that," said Taylor. "The Lord was watching over us here."
