Severe weather has wreaked havoc across the United States, with millions of people from Texas to Vermont facing the threat of tornadoes, damaging winds, and hail. A deadly storm system tore through the Midwest, resulting in at least 18 reported tornadoes in Iowa alone. The city of Greenfield, Iowa, located 60 miles southwest of Des Moines, bore the brunt of the devastation.
The National Weather Service confirmed that a preliminary EF3 tornado struck Greenfield, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. The small town, home to 2,000 residents within less than two square miles, was nearly flattened by the powerful tornado. The aftermath of the disaster is evident, with debris scattered across fields and buildings reduced to rubble.
