Iowa jellies: please check in. Are you okay?

Asked by Jeruba (56106points) August 15th, 2020

News of the staggering devastation by wind in Iowa has been eclipsed by a lot of other stories, but it’s much closer to home than Beirut and much bigger. We should be paying attention.

Corn Belt jellies, please let us know if you’re all right.

Do we know if there are any?

What happened in Iowa? I think I read something about an inland hurricane.

I don’t know of any jellies in IA, but there are some in the adjacent states of MO, WI, and IL.

While those in MO & IL seem to be doing okay, there is one in WI who hasn’t posted in about a month.

A derecho went through and did a lot of damage.

Thanks.

According to the Wa Post, it also hit Chicago, but 2 of the jellies in that area seem to be okay.

@Brian1946 I’m safe here in south central Wisconsin. I appreciate the concern.
