That broken tree was amazing, along with the house moved off it's foundation...wow
Up to $5k dollars? TF?!? That’s even enough to repair a roof.

The 5 thousand is probably living expenses until they find other housing or repair/rebuild. Hopefully many of these folks were insured.

@michelletorres9502 You're joking right? hundreds of billions of dollars, not millions, but billions have gone to the Ukraine and yet when these disasters like this happen, these people get pennies on the dollar....case in point. Look at Maui over in Hawaii. They got $700 from the government. And that's it. Their houses and businesses burned to the ground and they got $700, so maybe you ought to do your homework before you make a stupid comment.

It's not for the house, it's for expenses while waiting for insurance to process.
Devastating scene. Good reporting. Thanx.
Thank God there were no fatalities!! Absolutely miraculous!
Great reporting! What a terrible event, amazed but relieved that there weren't more injuries, prayers to all effected.
It was the broken tree that brought the realization of the power from this storm 😮
Praying these families can get back on track & find housing.
I'm impressed with how well-rooted those huge trees are to withstand a tornado by shedding all their foliage and minor branches. Only rarely do they tip over, break off, or lose their bark. It's like they evolved to coexist with these storms.
my family lives right behind where they broadcasted this - we had our trees taken out two years ago - thankful for it a well as their place took minimal damage but it could’ve been worse with those trees there
Good job, Brandi.
My God that is so horrible! My Prayers go out to ya'll
Had my 4 big trees cut down three years ago, [it wiped out my savings though] but got peace of mind when hurricanes /big storms gonna hit my area...prayers y'all
Prayers up
Good job Brandi.....🎉
Nice job Brandi....from NYC
This storm was scary to see live on Ryan Hall Ya’lls live stream. Luckily my uncle in Omaha and grandma in Harlan are both safe. Homes can be repaired but you can never replace loved ones. ❤
The house moved off it's foundation reminded me of the movie, the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy's house blown off. I can't imagine how the people who home's were wiped out, can sleep at night. I would imagine the children for those who were parents and were down in the basement, in the safest corner possible, the nightmares the children will have for years to come! Even for some of the adults losing their homes. So glad that down the road, these horrible things will not continue forever! And am glad to say in here at least, no ONE GOT KILLED. Injured yes, but not dead!
It was driving me crazy that there was what looked like a piece of siding impaled into that tree trunk and she wasn't even acknowleging it. Thankfully the guy mentioned it twice before she turned around to see it. I would have liked to have had the camera person get a closer shot because that would have been the most dramatic point of the story. BTW, there's no such thing a "pan down".
I have to hand it to our news stations and weather service, they had it down to the minutes for each area the tornadoes were headed for.
5 grand ? It'll cost more than that just to remove the debris
The house that moved intact barely even lost any siding.
That is my home Minden Iowa I don't live there now but I whish i was there to help out
Many better reporters out there

June 26, 1976. I grew up near Minden, I was 11 at the time, it was a Saturday night, and I remember my Mom and I hopping into our car and driving towards town to check on my grandmother. We were stopped by National Guardsmen on a hilltop to the south of town that overlooked Minden, and we were told we couldn't go any further. Seeing the damage from yesterday's storm reminded me of that day all over again.
🙏
So sad!
Makes me sick Thinking about it
$5,000 is barely enough to move somewhere else.
The $5,000 grant is most likely for food, clothing, hygiene, medications, maybe eyeglasses or hearing aids, etc. Possibly infant care. It's money for immediate human needs. Not the house.
This is mother nature's way of reminding us that possessions are insignificant and can be destroyed in seconds!!
Gaza praying for is reaching you more to come yet god will ameen
It's an amount they don't have, right now.... In a situation of starting from scratch or close to it, any little help is grateful...... just saying! ...Stop, and think, it's nobody's fault, so give them positivity and hope for a silver lining! Being in this dilemma is hurtful and no money can replace what they had although moral support and volunteering might help in the process to make their lives settle a little faster...According to this spokesperson, no lives were lost. Let's hope and pray the hurt folk will heal and can tell their own stories of the event through their eyes, soon,.
And the aerial spraying continues as you speak, it's unbelievable the pursuit is real.

Because tornado outbreaks aren't anything unheard of, there was 360 in 3 days in 2011. With much stronger tornadoes than this one too.
Has our president spoke out about this yet?
God made the earth, He can destroy it! As long as sin continues to deepen within the hearts of men, God will show you His power. Hopefully, we will understand that the reason for pain is to bring you closer to Him. This world is not our end all be all, so we should not worship things of this world but worship The One who created it! The Alpha and Omega! The Beginning and The End! The King of Kings! Lord of Lords! Yaweh, Jirah, Adonai, Rapha, Elohim, El Shaddai, Jesus Christ.. Almighty God The Savior! The ONLY ONE that deserves our praise! Today is the day of Salvation!

That's a great right wing answer to climate change...I'm not a Democrat but each year the storms get worse and worse and shifts more and more...we had a hail storm in Eastern Iowa in February and 80s in December. Insurance companies are fleeing iowa...God must have a sick sense of humor to kill us slowly or the earth is pushing back from are unappreciated behavior towards her.
$5,000 vs. recent foreign aid of over $96 billion dollars by the U.S. government? Just even 1 billion would greatly makes a big difference.

grants up to 5k for a loss of house like 280k. Those politicians should be giving less to coal, pharma and chemical and the kkk and provide more funds and energy to making sure people can survive.
