I just read somewhere that there hasn't been an F5 since Joplin, and Moore the year before.  That looks like an F5.

Forget Oklahoma, ground zero for tornadoes this year seems to be western Iowa and eastern Nebraska.

Yup, I have to agree with that...the heart of the tornado bullseye seems to have drifted north...and it could still drift further...

People need to prepare and be aware...

Someone was storm chasing this.  Insane.  And the weather service is saying F3 or higher.  I can't believe this would only be an F3.  Not with that sheer size and destruction.

Impressive.  They rate them based upon what they eat, and from what I've seen there is no way it was just an F3, has to be at least an F4 if not F4+.

Popping up in more traditional locations...and mobile home parks...don't most need shelters for residents by now?
