CheeseHusker Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Woke up in Aus this morning to see videos of the twister crossing I-80 at the Hwy 6 exit. Sounds like Lincoln proper dodged a bit of a bullet. Apparently there was a smaller one near the Kawasaki plant, which is REALLY close to where I used to live (Highlands). I remember having a close call there when I was about 4-5 years old. 1 Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 It'll be interesting to see what category these reached. I've read a few posts saying this particular cell had wind speeds in the 230 mile range. That's F5 if accurate. The tornado near Harlan, Iowa had a debris radar of nearly 4 miles. 3 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 What an absolute mess around Lincoln and Omaha. What I’m trying to figure out is how many different tornadoes were there? I have a number of friends on the west side of omaha. Luckily, I haven’t found any with major damage other than one by Blair that lost some out buildings…their house is still standing though. 1 Quote Link to comment

It looked like the entire area was a giant super cell with vortices coming down all over the place. This gives a pretty good indication of the numbers. A lot. Today might be even worse especially the through Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. Nebraska isn't out of the woods yet. 2 Quote Link to comment

We have a couple different nieces that both had minor damage but a 3rd niece, her husband’s co-worker house is absolutely gone. The whole lot was leveled to the dirt. Picture looks like what we saw in Moore Oklahoma 10+ years ago. Not good. 1 Quote Link to comment

There's no tree damage, or any kind of damage, anywhere that I can see. 2 Quote Link to comment
