I was just checking out the weather and the radar is scary.
Over eastern Nebraska & western Iowa there is a hammer of storms. Very weird.

2. Ugly!
Looks like "training effect" along the frontal system.

Lots of rain, maybe some hail (if the radar images are returning over 65dbz)and maybe worse.

Hope you're in a safe place!

5. I'm in my office on the 3rd floor of a very old building.
I will be taking the bush home in less than an hour, that should be fun in the storm.

3. some of that shape
appears to be defined by the circular range of the radar. particularly, the "head" of the hammer.
