Tornado map

The Press Citizen has a good photo gallery including this shot:

Thanks to Tim for the map. This is the path the tornadoes took last night. Click for larger image. We live on the east side, not in the area shown on the map.

See also pictures taken by people around the community. It’s really amazing. All this destruction, and our daffodils are fine. It’s crazy how tornadoes just rip through and destroy, but in such a narrow area.

    When I rode into work this morning I couldn’t get down Glendale, so I cut over to Rochester. There is A LOT of home/tree damage in that area. It’s devastating to see. I’ll have some pics up later. Thanks (Tim) for the map.

    Wow. This is the first I’ve heard about the tornado … thanks for posting the info. Apparently I used to live right in the path of it, kind of makes you think.

    Best wishes,

    Edward

    My sister lives in Davenport and all it said on the news ticker here (Salt Lake City) was “Four Tornadoes Hit Eastern Iowa.” She called and let us know she was okay – and Holly, Jack and Daphne too. Though I don’t know you, I am happy to see you guys are also okay. Wow.

  4. […] A video of some of the damage from this week’s tornadoes in Iowa City can be viewed here. Aprille has a map showing the path of the damage through town; it goes right past our old apartment. […]
