One of my daughters lives in Des Moines. Today, she said she's okay and not too worried, that there have been a lot of alerts lately without a tornado.
We said all it takes is one to be a problem. Especially if she were on the road going or coming from work. In the past she has pulled over under an overpass when storms happened. Hopefully, no one hurt in those small towns.
Some big trees down in Urbandale and a few power outages. Plenty of flooded streets and dummies stalling vehicles. Not terrible for DM metro.
Woman thrown from truck and killed near Corning, 80 or so miles east of Omaha. Greenfield looks like a war zone.
Maybe damage still to be done as storms move into Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois. And northern Missouri.
