Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds has declared disaster emergency proclamations for 15 counties after a series of deadly tornadoes devastated neighborhoods across the state. The powerful storms left a trail of destruction, flattening homes and causing significant damage.
Meteorologists are cautioning that the severe weather may not be over. As a storm system develops overnight, millions of residents from Missouri to Wisconsin remain under severe weather warnings. The potential for additional tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail poses a continued threat to the Midwest.
“We are committed to providing all necessary resources to assist those affected by these devastating tornadoes,” Governor Reynolds stated. “Our hearts go out to the impacted families and communities, and we will work tirelessly to support their recovery efforts.”
Emergency response teams are actively working to assess the damage and provide aid to those in need. Residents are urged to stay vigilant and follow weather updates as the storm system continues to move through the region.
