A central Iowa farmer says they suffered extensive crop damage from the intense windstorm that swept through the state on Monday.
Schyler Bardole of Rippey says most of their corn is now flat on the ground.
“There’s quite a bit snapped off and there’s some that’s just laid down,” Bardole says. “We had hail with it as well and it stripped the leaves off pretty bad.”
Bardole says they had sustained winds of 70 miles per hour for ten minutes with gusts over 85.
