Iowa City Tornado

On April 13, 2006, an F2 tornado formed in southwest Iowa City. Eight minutes and 4.5 miles later, the twister dissipated, leaving more than $12 million in damages. In honor of the 10th anniversary of this historic event, the Iowa City Public Library is collecting images and stories from people who lived through this event. We hope you enjoy this tornado tour.
