    OMG. My cousin and I were planning on staying at the motel in Minden in about 10 days during our old guys road trip up the Loess Hills scenic drive and part on the old Lincoln Highway between Loveland and Council bluffs. I had talked to the owner/manager of the motel about the rooms because I have some disabilities. She seemed so nice. This is heartbreaking as I did some of my growing up in Iowa. My parents lived in that area for several years. I also have a sister in Blair Nebraska which was hit today and nephew in Omaha. They are all Ok. Prayers for all. I’m in Kansas and we get our share of those things too.

      Most of the time, storm chasers are not equipped with the vehicles nor abilities to give them proper help. that's the local authorities job. storm chasers are storm chasers, EMS is EMS. Everyone has a job. If locals want to risk the lives of themselves and the lives of the victims, that's their liability. Storm chasers inform the local authorities of the situation, and let them handle their job. If they happen to have licensed medical training, they will go help. I wouldn't want to be the cause of their death because I thought I was helping when I was actually hindering their help.
