How are the storms on Hwy 20, Hwy 30, and I-80 tonight? We saw a huge grain bin was down in Mitchellville.

I'm in northern Polk county. Had a little over 2 inches in the last 3 hours. A little wind. The worst is south of us. A semi blew over on I-80 just east of Des Moines. Probably the same gust that hit Mitchellville. We are in a flash flood warning.

I must have slept through the worst of it. 1.7” of rain so far. Wind blew some before I went to bed but had calmed down, hopefully not much wind damage. Walnut trees are very susceptible now.
