Way to NOT report on how devastating this was

We are still without power in Cedar Rapids, IA! Major damage and destruction....sending some people here to help would be great!!

I heard Trump is to blame for this

Jesus.....imagine being a private pilot in this shit storm....you'd 1000% die no if and or butts about it.... A 25mph ground wind batters the shit out of regular cars and trucks imagine a damn airborne bird and 4x the speed

First non fake news article reported by CNN in 5 years

Flee America before it is too Late! The Storm is coming The War is sounding The Trumpets are coming!

Maybe it'll blow the riff-raff, 'protesters' and progressives right into Lake Michigan...

So a gale storm ⛈

Good! Hopefully it'll blow ALL of the the Chicago toilet into the lake

Is 'Derecho' the name of this storm or the direction it's traveling across the map? MorganKolkmeyer spanish101

What does this word mean? I’ve been a storm chaser but don’t know it. Doresho?

Hopefully it washes all the looters out to the great lakes

Watch out DC!

Sounds like new title for Sicario 3 movie Sicario :Day of the Derecho

Is this a euphemism for the peaceful protests that Chicago is having every day?

But of course, it's 2020, the year of the absurd.

Trump: Authorizes $430 million to fight sex trafficking. Fake Media: *crickets*

I suppose that explains all the looting last night around the gold coast.

I won’t die to this shit, I’m built different😈

Another gift by gop voters. Climate denial. Wow. Their stupidity is always giving us catastrophes.

Scrub that city!

for everybody else who had never heard that fucking word before

Wtf is derecho

The overwhelming poverty in Yemen, the Arab world’s most impoverished nation, has compounded the situation. Yemen BlameTrump LetThemPlay YemenCantWait

Better keep those looters informed. Way to go CNN.

Huh? 2020, the year of The Derecho!

Too bad FEMA funds are going to Donald's executive order bailout.

For every child killed by bombs and bullets, dozens are starving to death and it’s entirely preventable.” BlameTrump LetThemPlay Yemen YemenCantWait

Maybe they won’t loot and shoot each other as much if there’s bad weather? Might be a good thing.

LMAO ALL MY YEARS I AINT EVER HEARD OF A DERECHO 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I’m cryinnnnnn!!!! Lmao

Joe Biden is a 'PDS' and I am a bad dude.

We need a chainsaw here in Des Moines.

Climate change is real, and mother nature is pissed!

That is so 2020

My sister and hb had a broken balcony by a tree branch broken by this storm while moving in Urbandale IA.

Please come to Texas, please come to Texas.
