Even in the midwest people have no idea how bad this is. My family in Kansas had no idea until I sent pics. I moved this week from Davenport to north of CR so I have driven down 380 about 8 times.
My Davenport house still has no power. The movers packed and loaded the house in the heat. I am very lucky both places only have minor tree damage. My neighbors are in much worse shape. The best description for Cedar Rapids damage is imagine a tornado 40 miles wide.

It was basically a midwestern hurricane, and sure as hell looked like one too when it went through with how windy/rainy it was.
