Neighbors tree fell down right beside their house in south Johnston. I think it missed the house completely

Anyone know the status of the tornado that passed east of Nevada? It was heading toward Zearing and St. Anthony. My father lives a few miles south of Zearing on 65. I called him to say "get in the basement" and he said he could see it coming.

He's fine. Called after the storm passed. It missed him by about a mile. Thank you to all who left a kind reaction character to the first post.

Whew, a little too close for comfort.

It sounds like Ames was kind of in between some really nasty stuff. I always worry because my mom is there by herself. She didn't want to go to the basement until she was done cooking dinner

I just heard from @ImJustKCClone they are fine other than no power or internet. Will wait for her to officially say but I don't think she missed it by much.

That was a longer one than brother texted me showing just the flip over.

Would be interested to see if that semi was still there when the dust settled.

Would be interested to see if that semi was still there when the dust settled.

And where the cars ended up that drove straight into it

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

This was scary. You see tornadoes all the time in Iowa but you never think they will come that close.
