Jaw-dropping shelf cloud and tornado south in western Iowa on May 3, 2018

Tornado north of Nowaday, IA as supercell tracked into region of easterly surface winds near and just south of the I-80 corridor; and a beautiful shelf cloud to the south with more outflow dominant modes from veered wind profiles.

You guys are getting some beautiful footage. I LOVE all storms/weather. I just want you all to know I appreciate all you do out there. I'm in the mountains so my storm season usually doesn't start until July. I hope to post and pay you all back with some footage of my own. Stay safe and know I will always be praying for you.

Beauty. Also. I'm from Davenport , Iowa. And this is the first time in 10 YEARS I've heard about an Iowa tornado. Back in 2008 i was at school when a tornado came from Muscatine and towards a little town called Blue Grass (no the grass isn't blue) then turned back around and went back to Muscatine. Thankfully. Since then, I haven't really heard of Tornadoes in the state.

Maria Robotnik I live in the mountains of ne Tennessee and absolutely love what you just said about bluegrass. I think I peed a little laughing so hard.

Cherokee StormChaser well living there myself, because at the time we were living with my Dad's mom and step-dad (so my grandparents) in there basement. Yes you heard me right. And there was a school walking distance from the little neighborhood. Literally called Blue Grass Elementary.

Maria Robotnik Sounds just like my childhood. Including shoes with no bottoms having to walk to school in the late 70's that comment made my day and I was having a difficult one so bless you.

Reed I know you are super busy, but when this is done you might consider covering the volcanic situation in Hawaii, if it continues to progress.

[@chrisdawson265]

NO Live footage then Reed? 😎

[@chrisdawson265]

[@iowaredneck6969]

Aw I wish it hit near northeast Iowa because I live there but it was an amazing storm

[@ReedTimmerWx]

Yes first tornado Oct 4, 1998!

[@AtTheCrossingProductions]

Reed Timmer Well Im glad that you’ve continued to push towards chasing all this time, and I respect the events that you’ve gone through in that time.

[@franktenpenny1103]

Tornado season..

[@allgoo1964]

Of course, this has nothing to do with changing climate. Say so Southerners.

[@Torcon333]

Only Reed Timmer can get that money shot. #tornadowisperer
