Earlier the KDMX radar N of #DesMoines found some of the highest velocity data I have ever seen in a #Derecho. These values were higher than any velocity data seen w/ #Isaias last week. A very damaging & dangerous wind storm moving through Iowa. #IAwx

Maybe I'd think different if I was a decades experienced chaser, but you'd have to be constantly driving east never stopping, and it still might be gaining on you

Corn losses will be huge
Mind you, prices had dropped like a rock cus covid. So it might help other farmers

Pat Kepka (Russell Co. KS) 11-Aug-20 01:08 PM
Really depends if they snapped or just got laid over. There will be losses regardless but if it’s just laid over, it won’t be as much as a loss

Aimee sent us this picture from Whispering Pines Court SW in Cedar Rapids. It appears to be an airplane wing lodged into the garage of a homeowner. The people inside are fine! We hope you are as well. Share your photos with us: https://t.co/T0PYzr6WbO
