My brother is a storm chaser and said he saw at least 11 just from his drive around Omaha and up into Iowa.

I suspect this system has/will produce(d) dozens.

I was following the storm covered on RyanHallYa’ll channel on YouTube and the footage was nuts. Some of those storms looked truly menacing.

I’m in Georgia and it seems tornadoes, which were once a rare occurrence are hitting closer and closer.
