a good friend called me to tell me that there was a funnel cloud sited above her town, and that her parents' had a tree fall on an old car parked beside their house. Both she and her parents live in the middle of Missouri. no one was hurt from her family.
On the other hand, she is stuck in northern iowa at her future in-laws, from a snowstorm. She said that they woke up to a snowdrift that tried to eat their little car.
Here in southern Iowa, we had FANTASTIC thunderstorms! Boom! Crash! Bang! I love T-storms. but I unplugged my PC and cable modem just in case.
