I’m always flabbergasted by news reporters that think they need to descriptively narrate what’s blatantly apparent on the screen. “Can you see the car that has been impaled by debris that was flying, sometimes feet in the Really? Debris fly’s in the air during a tornado???

What happens to the gas and water lines when a home is leveled like that? Does natural gas just leak out or is there some kind of shutoff mechanism?

Prayers to all the people that was affected by these tornados

I’m surprised the reporter talked about people getting in their cars and driving away from the storm. That’s one thing growing up in Nebraska we were told not to do! We were suppose to seek shelter, which for most people meant the basement. Did these homes not have basements, or is this a change due to the more advanced warning?

FYI, Nobody packs up their family and leaves their home when we see a tornado coming.
Most every home here has a basement that we go to when we hear the tornado siren going off.
Those basements are why there were no deaths here during that F5 tornado and the other 70 tornados that hit here 2 days ago.
Mobile homes have a nearby shelter where there seek cover.

Thanks for sharing. God help them let them see you and your mercy and love.

these kinds of weather events are life changing I still suffer ptsd from a 2016 storm, every time we go under a severe weather warning, also with climate change driving a longer duration severe storm spring season, and with soaring building materials costs and builders focusing on sq footage and profit these structures don't stand a chance

[chrissansone]

Be aware of donation scams for the victims! Make sure you check the background of any organization you donate to! Jesus loves y’all!

[filibertocaceresbetancur-ynmq]

The humanity must be know where tornadoes from and so is formaded it

[jeffkardosjr.]

There was at least one E5 from this outbreak but I wouldn't be surprised it gets dowplayed to an EF4 or EF3.

[lindasue]

4 mile wide, possibly an E4 or 5 tornado, so ya, the damage is not just on that street!
Elkorn is devasted. An animal shelter has been damaged and many many homes.

[SteveEddy-odfb]

But what is scary is worse one's might be on the way???😮

[adelefortin]

W H Y do people continue to build and live in those very destructive areas? Every single year there is severe destruction in those areas and of course, property insurance is going to continue to go up... up... up. Why don't they just grow crops there? Looks like the same bombing damage seen in Ukraine and Gaza....

[mizzmoze]

The govt better give them club med help like they do the immigrants.
Prayers for all lives!
