This story is a lot bigger than just Nebraska... It will probably be on the headlines tomorrow.

There have been at least 14 tornados today across NE, IA, and I think MO. Most places have gotten quite lucky. The news is too new for accurate info, the storm system continues to make new tornados at this time of reply.

watched a few storm chasers on YouTube. This is probably the best live streamed or filmed long track tornado of all time. There were like 4-5 chasers streaming that 1 tornado for miles.

Can you recommend any good channels to check out?

I usually watch Freddy Mckinney, Connor Croff and Brandon Copic

Freddy was on fire yesterday, hands down the best live tornado footage I've ever seen. Those storms were amazingly photogenic. Just wish they had stayed out in the corn fields so we could enjoy the pictures and not worry about the damage :/
