Deadly EF-4

5 people were killed in this, the deadliest Iowa tornado since the deadly Parkersburg EF-5 in 2008. We are about a half mile away from it. Big props to first responders and storm chasers for showing up en force and helping this community and surrounding areas. Our sorrow lingers for the lost.
Doppler on wheels measured a gust in the 309-318 MPH range, however it does NOT change the rating as the EF scale only measures damage. Furthermore the gust lasted less then a second and was 150 feet aloft.
Keep your eyes on the circling skies, my friends. Windcatcher out.
