    Most important point is that all of you are okay. All the rest will be better in due time. The storm hit me not too long before it hit you, and my house was essentially unscathed, but there is a lot of damage here in Iowa. I tried to work last night in Newton, but the situation did not allow me to get anything accomplished. Get your rest when you can, Ryan. We will all be here when you are ready to post videos. Family and farming come first.

    Thank you for saying what you said about hooking up a generator. Some people as simple as it sounds don’t realize they need to shut off the main breaker for the power coming in. I have a friend who is a lineman and he was injured from someone doing this. Small generators usually are not strong enough but a power takeoff generator such as yours could easily cause harm. I’m sorry to hear about your crap you guys work so hard to have a beautiful crop just to have it flattened is disheartening

    I had a similar thing happen to my house several years ago now. I'm not a small man by almost anyone's imagination, but an oak tree a bit larger than my diameter fell on my house, nearly splitting it in half. I still show the pictures to the younger kids in my family asking if they want to see Uncle Brent's tree house :) In my case I had just paid to have the roof replaced only six days before. Stuff can be replaced, though it will hurt for a while. Good luck and enjoy the meteor shower. Be thankful you weren't injured during that tree falling, your house is able to take far greater an impact than your skull :)

    This happened in northern Minnesota on July 4th 1999.
    It went from Lake Of The Woods across the state and flattened trees in Superior National Forest.
    People were trapped under tree's in the BWCA in their tents. Years later some of the areas largest forest fires were from the massive blowdown.
    My heart goes out to you and the people of eastern Iowa.

In time everything can be repaired and put back to square one. The main thing is your safe to fight another day. Don’t worry about the videos too much until you are back to normal. I wish you and the rest of your family all the best. Cheers Phil.

    I was over between Marion and Cedar Rapids in a semi-truck when that storm hit. Had it not been for quick thinking on my part, my truck would have been on it side with me in it, like many ended up being that day. I did see some of the damages as I navigated my way out, it looked in some areas like a bomb was dropped, other areas there was nearly no damage at all. Glad to hear that everyone was safe, just keep you heads up, I hope you don't have to much crop loss but from what I saw that's not likely. Best of luck getting the things back to normal.
