Around noon, we saw two State Troopers hauling ass up Highway 61 (Iowa's Coolest Flower Shop is right on the highway)- we knew something was up.
Unlike some of our local deputies, the troopers don't turn on their lights and floor it because they're late for lunch.
Growing up in the Midwest, you get used to tornado season, but it's always scary when one hits 20 fucking miles from your house.
They're slightly unusual round here, though. The Mississippi River generally causes them to skip over us and nail Illinois or stops them altogether.
Boy, wouldn't it be nice if the Iowa National Guard were stateside?
