Area of really strong wind around Blue Grass headed NE.

No well defined areas of rotation. May luck out there.

Or not. Tornado warning for QC area. Area of interest continues to be Blue Grass area. Northern part of DVN may get it.

All those poor weed zombies in the QC probably have no clue what's going on right now.

Weather channel has a live camera on that storm.

Basement?! Dude, I thought you were from Ioway. Card officially revoked. Get your ass on the porch and say seven hail Kimmies.

Agreed. Man card revoked, not eligible for reinstatement until he takes a hand pic

I rode out the Derecho on the first floor despite making everyone else go to the basement. I felt like Lt. Dan in Forest Gump riding out the storm

Meh...nothing special here in CR. Both lines dropped all too brief heavy rainfall, then flew on through.

I guess I should be happy we got some rain, but (so far) we didn't really get all that much considering the forecast.

Sigh...

We must have received a decent amount in North CR, the local ‘pond’ areas filled in nicely. Just came down to fast to be super helpful.

Around 3:15 pm today on farm just north of Palmer, we got the warning..went out on road and observed that rope tornado. Very well defined with Sun in West and high cloud bank to east. Could see it zig-zagging around with visible debris kicking up at base...first I have ever seen. Glad it stayed east of our place.

Well, we escaped to play another day… we did get some much needed rain though…just not enough off it.

Double CSB, Mrs. Lucas had a patient a few years ago who went outside to look at a tornado and had his head caved in by a piece of sheet metal the storm was carrying on. Food for thought.
Second CSB, we picked up our dog a few miles to the east of Palmer. I think the lady runs a grooming business, still, but cut away from the rescue organization she was affiliated with. She is a mile or two west of Pioneer as I recall.

I've shared this CSB on here before but when I was a kid I was staying at my grandparents down in SW Iowa we had a close call with a tornado, it got within 2-3 miles of the house. The next day my grandpa and I were out in the pasture and found a truck on it's top in the field. It was his friend's truck, that lived 2 or 3 miles away. The tornado took the truck for one hell of an airborne ride.

Perfect little guy to quite literally chase assuming you know its general heading. Not rain wrapped, good visibility generally, pretty harmless overall. Chasers dream right there.
