My belief is that you have to be underground to get to that 90% survival rate in a mid range EF4-E5. Most schools don’t have the ability to make that happen.

All sharp objects are underwater and I can’t find them.
I had to drive through the worst of it after the kids game last night to check on something. 30 mph and could barely see the road at times on the way up, 90 minutes later it was identical on the way back.
It looks like kcci says the nastier of the storms is in the 3 to 8pm range which makes me feel a little better!
3” rain Sunday into Monday, around 4-5” last night. More on the way. School cancelled in Newton. Yikes.
Raining like a cow ####### on a flat rock For all you oldsters who grew up in rural Iowa

I live in our basement 22 hrs a day and always have the shades closed - so I don’t see or hear anything but thunder. How much have we gotten out in Waukee? The few times I’ve looked outside the past few days, it’s looked like it was going to rain but I never then hear or see anything. The house is really humid however.
We live in Glynn Village behind Sugar Creek Golf. Seems like it’s been going right North or right South of us like 90% of storms do.
You're probably good until the water gets ankle deep in your basement. Higher than that I'd worry about the electrical outlets.
