I just finished working out at the South Ames Racquet & Fitness at around 11:30 and came up Duff. There's a rental car place on the west side of Duff near the bowling alley and they had employees in boots hauling stuff out of their store. At that time water was just coming onto Duff forcing southbound traffic into the center lane. The KCCI news I heard about lightning possibly hitting an apartment complex not too far from where I live.
Wow I just saw the aerial shot from Chopper 13 and the Walmart on Duff is surrounded by water.
