Tornado destroys wind turbines in Adams County
Credit: May 21, 2024 | bucoa.org ~~
A tornado swept through a wind turbine field in Adams County, Iowa during yesterday’s severe weather outbreak, destroying multiple wind turbines. At least three turbines were destroyed. At least one of those turbines caught fire and burned after being blown over. Witnesses said the turbine towers snapped like twigs and there are blades and debris strewn across a large area.
Our hearts and prayers go out to the multiple people who lost their lives and their loved ones in Greenfield from this same tornado.
Update: Dramatic storm chasing video shows the moment a tornado swept through a wind turbine field in Adams County Iowa, snapping turbine towers like twigs, carrying blades and other turbine debris hundreds of feet into the air, and sending it flying everywhere.
