Second Traer tornado rated EF1

The National Weather Service makes quick work of storm damage surveys. It has a combined report for the July 6 Reinbeck and Traer tornadoes*, both rated EF1. I was going to make a composite map with the June 30 track, but this one is embedded in a PDF with a different mapping service so it will take some work.

The up-close storm chaser’s footage was wrapped into larger weather pieces yesterday on both Today and Good Morning America.

The Waterloo Courier used last week’s tornado as the main basis for an Iowans-are-awesome editorial.

*With one being June 30 and the other being July 6, we at least have that to differentiate the Traer tornadoes in the future, and worry less about “no, not that one, the other one”.
