were south of stuart. Greenfield tornado essentially split between my place and highway 92. couldn’t see it from my place because rain was too hard

plenty of friends/family in greenfield.

Gald you're OK. Hope that Deere rider wasn't damaged.

The way the radar is trending I might not even get anything.

I thought it funny when she said if you lose power, you can still stream us online. Um, no power = no internet.

I was streaming on my phone so I'd guess that's what she was referring to.

They do NOT need another one. I still remember what happened to them way back when (early 80s, I think). Towns should not have to go through that twice, let alone once.

June 8, 1984. F5 that killed nine and injured 200.

Peonies really feeling the wind effect, but irises I’m planning to dig and share tomorrow are fine. Not even drooping.

Going to be pretty unfortunate for that dude when his boss has the video.

 

[CoachHines3]

yeah. took a few out. here’s a video of one

Some of the livestream/videos this afternoon showed the blades being carried up and around as the tornado passed over them. Truly awesome in a unique way. Trying to imagine the force necessary is impossible for me.
EDIT: yes, the above is one of those videos.

No, it’s just scrap metal now. Some scrap yard will be trying to figure out how to unload that from a trailer.

All clear. Nothing in sight.

Pretty calm. Don’t know where exactly you are.

 

[stormchaser2014]

5 minutes of rain and a couple close lightning strikes, that's it. The wind earlier today when it was clear was stronger.

Used to drive through Greenfield every day on the way to work (from Cumberland to Indianola). I always thought it was a beautiful little town, and this is just devastating.
