Iowa Sergeant describes being caught in tornado

Wow, it's amazing that those campers were safe. What a horrible time to be inside an RV... or a patrol car for that matter.

He did everything he could to keep people safe.

Glad he’s OK. He seems like a nice and humble man. Probably a great officer.

When I was caught in a tornado in my car I quickly realized there was no way for me to get out of it. They say to get out of your vehicle and get in a ditch, but once it's there I don't know if the Hulk could open a car door to get out. The one that caught me just looked like a small funnel cloud forming off in the distance. I was almost home and I thought there was enough time that I could easily make it, but clearly I am not a professional tornado evaluator LOL. Scariest minute of my life that left me facing the opposite direction in the middle of the highway, but uninjured and no serious damage to my car that was left plastered with corn stalks and leaves.

Glad he's okay

He might have experienced a miracle. I was watching both on my professional level radar and a live stream when this outbreak happened - a storm spotter in Cedar Rapids for the NWS. The Greensfield EF-5 formed near Villisca. It might have just been gathering strength or he could have been hit by a sub-vortice. It's a miracle he's alive.

The officer still has on all his protective gear. Hasn’t completely gotten over it yet.

A dramatic scene like that and they put stupid tag right across the screen. I hope everyone was ok.

Storms and natural disasters always seem to bring people together much more than any religion can do. 🤗
