a wave of tornadoes sweeps the center of the country

A powerful tornado darkens the sky over the small town of Minden, Nevada. A tornado chaser captures images of a completely destroyed shed roof in seconds. Friday April 26, the central United States faced a whole series of tornadoes, which stood like walls in the middle of the roads. Caught by the wind, a heavy truck is thrown onto the opposite lane and ends up in the ditch. Immediately, motorists came to help the driver.

At least six injured

The two states of Nebraska and Iowa are particularly affected by these tornadoes. In their wake, the swirling monsters left significant damage. In Elkhorn, a town of 6,000 inhabitants, entire neighborhoods were devastated. Residents describe the shock when the violent winds passed. “We got home as quickly as possible (…) we heard that everything was flying around us, it was scary”, says a mother. A provisional report shows at least six injured.
