It shows the frightenting power of an EF-5 tornado as it slams into a bank building on May 25, 2008 in Parkersburg, IA. This was the first EF-5 tornado to strike Iowa since June of 1976.

It appears that most of the stronger storms will remain over the Foothills of North Carolina. However, there's the potential for a stray storm over the Western edge of the viewing area as we reach the late afternoon and early evening.
