Just watched you tornado video - I was born and raised in Mankato, MN and so saw lots of storms. Living in tornado alley this was a constant in the spring/summer. One took all of the buildings except the house on my mom and stepdad's farm. Mom was away shopping with a friend and when they drove up over the ridge by their home - there was no farm left and my step-dad was in the house! He was not hurt but the tornado pulled up a huge grove of trees and dropped them randomly all over the farm - one laying across between the house and the summer kitchen. The roots of those trees were as high as the house.
Where are you from Mankato? I now live in WI but my mom is living in a nursing home in Madelia, MN.
Wishing you a lovely weekend! Soon our winter storms begin!
