Those poor people in Wayne, NE

No idea how accurate this is (off my FB page)

We're excited to relay tonight that there have been zero reports of anyone killed in today's storms in Nebraska & Iowa.
As of this post there have been 17 tornado reports per the SPC. 13-17 individuals have been taken to hospitals, 7 of which were in auto accidents. 30 homes have been destroyed and many more out buildings / barns.
These numbers will change by morning in the areas affected but minimal preliminary numbers, given some of the earlier images today, is a very positive thing.
Thanks to everyone who tuned into ChaserTV!


and so was this:

@NWSOmaha 4m
Damage survey team in Wayne has reported that a couple of spots in the industrial park suggest EF4 rating. Mostly EF2-EF3 though.

Got a cell tracking across several counties of TN and now into KY with TOR warnings. It may have also had warnings in AR and MO.

Haven't seen anything on damage reports yet.
