There are some incredible visuals of tornadoes coming out Friday evening and unfortunately, they’re also causing a lot of damage across the heartland. There have been reports of at least 59 tornadoes across Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa, as of 7 p.m. ET, according to the National Weather Service.
This visual caught an incredible view of a tornado around Lincoln, Nebraska, by a storm-chasing team.

Very powerful tornadoes, according to reports.
Nebraska Tornado Tonight: The radar data tells the story: The tornado was very close by, with the lowest beam just 700′ above the ground. VROT was near 225-230 mph, just an insanely large, intense tornado. Debris lofted to 20,000’+, and the circulation was also about 1.25-1.5… pic.twitter.com/PbneqGb2al

It’s not clear exactly where all the areas of damage are yet. Hundreds of houses sustained damage in Omaha, Nebraska — mostly in the Elkhorn area in the western part of the city, Omaha Police Lt. Neal Bonacci said.
