A portion of the National Museum of the United States Air Force has reopened after Monday's tornadoes damaged a portion of a hangar, according to a spokeswoman for the museum.

The hangar housing The Early Years Gallery sustained damage to some metal siding on the building.

The museum reopened the area Thursday after completing a temporary fix to the hangar.

No artifacts or aircraft in the hangar were damaged during the storms.
