Severe weather Kansas and Nebraska

[flybynight]

Tornados and severe thunderstorms. Stuck in barn for 15 minutes because of large hail after  running car to shelter. Documented tornado within 7 miles from my house. Closest so far 

[Crosscut]

Not a topic where "no news is good news" can be assumed.  Morning after sitrep FBN?

[flybynight]

No damage that I could see to my property. The largest hail we saw was ping pong ballsize. Thats when I grabbed a coat and hard hat ran out  drove only vehicle left out to barn. I don't think the winds at my place exceeded 40-50, So far as I can see the nearest tornado was 5-6 miles away. this tornado moved NE and took out some roofs. It was reported to be EF2

A separate tornado destroyed a house

And chase  footage of Andover tornado

https://youtu.be/cCcnLYHoD3A

[flybynight]

So the NWS released their tornado surveys and the closest one wasn't 5-6 miles away. It was just over a mile away 

[Crosscut]

Ping pong ball sized hail is scary enough for me.  Glad to hear you didn't have any property damage.
