Big outbreak here in Iowa today. Several very large long track tornadoes n western Iowa. Confirmed tornado just southwest of the Des Moines metro right now. No reports of deaths or injury yet, but I'm afraid of what will be reported tomorrow. Gonna be a lot of destruction for sure.
Omaha area got hit pretty hard too.

Saw that on the news. Hope everyone is ok. Unreal system

I’ve been watching them all afternoon . A big super outbreak today and potentially hitting the same areas tomorrow . Let’s pray that it doesn’t, they have been hit hard today in some areas.

Some amazing video from storm chasers today. One tornado in particular was on the ground for close to an hour and they said was a mile wide at times. I think it somehow missed any bigger towns.

Are you and yours alright Dave?

Yes, all good here. Thank you.
The big storms went west of here. Got some rain but that's it, thankfully.

Good. Glad to hear it.

I spoke with my son, who lives in Osceola. He said it got rough down there for a while, but he didn't have any damage from the storm, at least at the time when we spoke.

Just saw some pictures of Minden, Iowa. Not much left there.

Where abouts is Bremer County in all of this? I have quite a bit of family around Waverly.

Minden, Iowa

Elkhorn, NE

Omaha hospitals called in all hands this afternoon.
