'I Heard The Train': Iowa Resident Describes Encounter With Violent Tornado While Riding Bike

Wow what a MESS. I pray these people will be able to find shelter, food and rebuild their lives quickly.

I feel sorry the dog had to go through this alone 😔

Hon, you had people from all over America....watching the storm spotters, Brandon, Vince and Cory......and they were there helping. We were ALL Praying for your community. From Colorado, Im glad to hear you are ok. ❤

My prayers for you all there!!!!

So sad, prayers for all those affected.

I've seen thousands of tornado videos through the years. I use to live in Stillwater, Oklahoma; Fortunately I never saw a tornado. I sure saw alot of damage afterwards. I feel so sad for not only the residents of Greenfield, but all those effected by thehorrific devastation. Such a beautiful part of the United States. I love the people of the midwest.

So glad to hear she hid in the basement with her pets!! Holy smokes!

It would be nice if your graphics were minimized or eliminated altogether. Some of the footage was covered up, like the tornado causing damage on the ground.

Max Velocity channel is very helpful in you live in states suffering tornados.

Valerie is definetely a Warrior to survive that mess.

It's so strange how a tornado can completely destroy one particular area, but sprinkled within that same area are homes that look practically untouched (house with the blue roof and a few others). She confirmed hearing the train that everyone always speaks of.

Sending Prayers!!

Giant Fox banner covers action. That's what I came to see.

This was a "dead man walking" tornado

Don't count on the red cross. When Parkersburg had their tornado. Our citizens had hot food anytime of the day ready to eat. Red cross came in and said we had to move out so they could give out cold sandwiches over the noon hour and that was it. Citizens of the town had to move out with hit food or loose any future red cross services

I hope her kitty is SAFE!!!

I live in (near) a small town of 700 +/- in Arkansas along the Oklahoma border, so while we haven't been hit that hard, we know the struggle it brings. Our hearts, as well as donations through the Ryan Hall Organization should be there today. These are weather people that follow every major storm with radar and often with "warnings" about certain storms before the Weather Service does. But their storm chasers will often break off from chasing and getting stunning storm video to help with rescues in small towns. They help the injured to medical help, whatever they can do in the moment. Then they try to bring in a kitchen, or at least meals for the victims and the searchers. They give out generators, chain saws, bedding, clothing, cash for meds and such. Those boys and girls are headed your way with help. To quote the group 'The Archies', "Hang on Snoopy!" 😎

People need to remember its not just the radar you have to pay attention to . We got Ryan Hall , Max Velocity and so many more who are helping to share the importance of the weather with lots of storm chaser who are on the ground and verifying there are intense storms and active tornadoes on the ground . Thats how so many call and message friends and family members theres a dangerous storm or tornado coming there way . Please stay weather aware and be ready . My condolences to those who lost their lives 🙏.

errrrr.....people do not pay attention to the weather in that part of the nation.....??????????

How awesome it is she's okay. And what a coincidence that her name is Warrior. Praying for you all.
