Make a wish

Usually branches end up scattered on the ground following a storm. This particular “wishbone” took a wild ride on the wind and straddled a power line just north of Ogden Middle School. A fast-moving thunderstorm last Wednesday set off tornado sirens along its path. Sirens sounded in Ogden shortly after 3 p.m. but fortunately, no tornados developed in the immediate area.  Meteorologists had issued 20 tornado warnings by the time the severe weather had passed through the state. The National Weather service confirmed three tornadoes in Iowa while another eight were unconfirmed in connection with the storm.
