i lived in iowa city and went to school at grant wood where i think the tornado started at, i moved to CR after the flood in 93, i remember this happening in 06 cause my brother in-laws were working at Carousell on Hyw 1 and they called my sister and said that they could see it coming acrossed they airport and that they were taking cover, then the phone went blank and you could hear glass shattering and people yelling...... thank god not a lot of people got hurt

[planbskater118]

[razvy94rmx]

do you know why tornadoes cant formate in citis?because they dont have enough space to form!olso,they can form on a hill or something and than to hit a city.Happy Easter to all \m/!!

[volodia07]

Do you know why tornadoes can't form in cities? Because they can! On another note, "formate", not a word.

[alexwilton23]

lol, i agree, "do you know why tornadoes cant formate in CITIS" what a faggot razvy94rmx, he also spelled also wrong he said "olso"

[ScRuBsRoCkS11]

this was scary

[cwhale06]

I was at my brother's house off Lower Muscatine Rd. when that happened. I'll never forget the sound when it hit downtown. Just happy no one died in that one!

[englishwithjohnny]

@cwhale06 a woman did die; in Muscatine County, 20-miles away; by the same storm; I think the tornado touched down again; it was kind of up and down.

[MrChantavong]

i was high as fuck that day i didnt even know there was a tornado ha

[ThaMVP7330]

that day many twist & turns i remember cause me & my brother & his friend we were stuck inside the movie theater & i remember getting a call saying don't go out at 1st i'm like tell me this isn't happening i was scared as fuck

[lions180]

wow, I still remember this night, I just got home from track practice, and they put out storm warnings, it was such a weird night how the weather change so fast that day, and its still weird to go through downtown knowing what had happen to it that night

[CollinsLuvsAngel]

I'll never forget this night...My grandmother and mom got home from church just as the electricity went out. And we had to go into the creepy down stairs (other my mom and I did as I cried since my Gma, dad and dog refused to join us) and then when it was done our house was fine but the sority down the street was like a doll house. And I just remember being up late calling each of my friends and getting calls from them making sure all of us were safe and okay.

[justcf23]

The start of the clip looks like it could be in a tornado safety commerical or a movie with the music and how you positioned the camera.

[BadCamera32]

Call me dumb here but...the storm knocked out power as it appears yet the stop lights are still flashing...how is this possible?Just curious..where I live if the power goes out so do the stop lights..just wondering how yours actually can function after something like this.we could use that technology here.

[divingfool2004]

I walked through downtown 15 minutes after it went through to get home from a friend's house. A few street lights worked, but most of the light was provided was by trucks. All the building had no power.

[a00971670]

where i live, the street lights have back up power so that if something happens, traffic can still drive safely...

[MallPallMusic]

ever heard up backup, emergency city power generators, dumbass???its a university town...we need them in case power goes out in the hospital and somebody's heart rate monitor or respirator goes out of power so that THEY DONT' DIE!

[Hiei2k7]

University of Iowa Hospitals are A-1 in my opinion.

DAMN glad they didn't get hit.

[ccipolla2]

some traffic lights go to emergency power when power is out. witch make the traffic light flash all red

[padude64]

Tornadoes at night are especially bad!

[pnstate40]

i remamber this church seats were found in backyards st.pats

[Enigma1677]

Did you guys have sirens to warn you?

[timmo2k]

you can faintly here them in the backround

[purplehippo125]

that was a really scary night for me and everyone...my friends houses got smashed,and our school had no electricity so we had no school. and we helped clean up neighbor hoods

[catAIDS]

the craziest thing about this night was seeing all three happy joes delivery trucks crushed by their own building.

[wolfinthesno]

i live just north of iowa city in solon and my sis was at the hospital when it happened with some of her friends she happened to park in a different place than she normaly would and she went past were she normaly wouldve parked later that night and all the cars were smashed into each other and overturned
