CNN reporting a tornado struck a hospital in Creston, Iowa.

“”We have been hit. We are triaging and moving patients,” a spokeswoman at Greater Regional Medical Center in the south-central Iowa city confirmed.

City Council member Randy White told CNN he was aware of no serious injuries. “A lot of windows have been broken out and some cars have been flipped over. We can’t see a lot right now because the power is out.”

A temporary hospital was set up at Southwestern Community College, White said.

It looks rough on raw radar. The pressure is strong. Anyone on this frontal path needs to be covered up. Darkness is a curse for this situation.
