Situations like this is why you should never be cold-hearted or mock others in their calamities. Today it might be me, but tomorrow it might be you. 🤕🤕🤕

Almost 100 tornadoes in Iowa so far this year what a crazy couple of years for Iowa lots of crazy weather.

At 2:20 in the video, did I hear him say 250mph or “up to 150mph”?

​@carlmay9532 if it does happen to be a ef5 whatever the NWS rates it this would be the first ef5 since 2013 Moore Oklahoma

"A" tough season? Last year's March 31 tornado outbreak was a rare super-outbreak in which Iowa was one of the states that was hammered. I also have to mention the August 2020 monster derecho, which was the worst and strongest derecho in recorded history.

I had 100mph winds hit my backyard and house. At least with a hurricane, you get days of prep and time to evac, but that day the derecho hit, that felt like tornados every where. I had never seen so many crops destroyed. Whenever a line of storms form on the Missouri River side, and start heading east, it always makes mentally prepare on the rest of the day, just in case.

Yes, a tough season is right. Have you been paying attention this year?

Uh, we have back to back really bad outbreaks this year. The last week of April, early May, sunday and yesterday, and probably this weekend too. Actually, did you know that this April was the second most active ever, only behind 2011? Yeah, this is indeed a tough season.

This breaks my heart 😢. Iowa is my home state. I have tears for these people. God please be with these people’s family that lost loved one and people who lost their homes. 🙏🙏

This tornado was at least EF3 minimum based on the EF scale damage I saw to those houses. NWS still will rate the thing, but this one was not small.

@@afterburner119I think it’s a high end ef4 possibly ef5. This tornado ripped a storm shelter out of the ground and threw it. Also scoured areas of pavement too and lifted a slab off its foundation.

*2:30** It's a good thing all that smoke isn't poisonous or dangerous to the atmosphere.* *It's a good thing that generator doesn't hold hundreds of gallons of oil.* "Green energy" is PERFECT.

So if a tornado touched down on an oil refinery it would not produce smoke or oil spill?

Is it me or are there more tornados this year than last year? Jesus christ, i have never seen this many cities and states effective by tornados this year 2024
