Damage assessment is underway in communities across much of Iowa after Wednesday’s severe weather. There are multiple reports of tornadoes, mostly in southwest and central Iowa, as well as wind damage reports from Council Bluffs to Davenport. In Adams County, Donnie Willett is the Emergency Management Coordinator. He says they may have had a twister touch down near Corning.
“We had three buildings at our industrial site that sustained roof damage and sidewall damage from the downburst or tornado or whatever it was.” Workers were evacuated from the P-P-I or Precision Pulley and Idler factory in Corning. No injuries were reported. Willett says the powerful winds made for a rough afternoon for at least one truck driver.
“We had a semi blow over on Highway 34 at the Redwood Avenue intersection,” Willett says. “There were no injuries involved.” The Weather Service says power poles were knocked down in Red Oak at around 1:45-p.m., Wednesday.
In Ringgold County, where winds whipped up to 80-mph, power lines were downed in a rural area south of Delphos, and a machine shed was destroyed by a possible tornado east of Delphos. A barn was also destroyed southeast of Diagonal and part of a machine shed was damaged west/northwest of Mount Ayr. The weather service says also, a barn lost its roof one mile north of Bridgewater at around 2:15-p.m.
