Current tornado watches. This looks like it is auto-updating the map.

For those of us in western and central Iowa, if you are having connectivity issues, especially with local tv channels or your radio, they’ve cranked the Doppler radar field north of Ankeny, IA, to full throttle. Radar coverage in western Iowa isn’t the best, so be patient.

Sitting pretty and calmly here at the gun show on the east side of council bluffs.

My brother Works in Omaha and was headed home to Harlan and effectively followed the tornado down i-80. He sent us a picture of minden, iowa. Yes the devastation is severe there.

He sent one picture that shows what appears to be a tree growing out of the inner shoulder along the interstate. And just a bit farther along there is a semi laying on its side in the median. And what looks like vehicle debris caught on the posts for the Guard railing cables that go down the center of the interstate over in that area.

Sorry, but I don't know how to post the pictures on my phone. But they sent some to me that show extremely wide tornado on the ground just west of harlan. They said the reports coming in of houses and Farms that were hit out there.

That tornado was easily a mile and a half wide, with multiple vortices.

Tornado watch and severe thunderstorm warning here. Area is considered northwest central Iowa. Weather feels extremely creepy like a tornado is going to appear any moment. We're at the north edge of the tornado watch but with a severe thunderstorm warning it can quickly morph into a tornado. Praying no one will die in this outbreak.

Ed Wilson on ch 13 is concerned that 5he tornado chasers are not properly trained . :xpnd:

The chaser in question is a news anchor, Ellis Johnson, not one of the regular spotters. I'd be a bit concerned, too. I know we make fun of those guys, but it really does take a little bit of experience and attention to the radar to keep safe. I think he's out there alone, although I hope one of the camera guys is along for the ride.
