These are a few days old.
Thought they looked neat.

Connor where are you in Iowa. I'm in Minden.

Those are some pretty impressive pictures! Just makes a guy nervous seeing that wall cloud. Where in Iowa were these pics taken?

Looks like you caught that last pic. just as the one blade broke and a small piece is flying off of it.

Whew! Those clouds and those windmills make me Thank God I don't live there, I honestly doubt that I could tolerate either one very long. Knowing the ominous looking clouds come and go just like they do here sometimes here I do live makes them sort of a natural thing......But those giant windmills are there 24-7 and they certainly aren't a natural thing.....they look menacing to me, especially in those dark clouds.....I doubt if I could sleep at night knowing they're out there.......

How'd you happen to catch the demise of the propellor right as it happened?

I live 15 minutes west of Marshalltown and about 30 minutes east of Des Moines. That last picture was supposed to be a panoramic shot but didn't quite make it so that is why the blades look like they are breaking. I don't mind the wind turbines I think they
are an engineering feat and they just look pretty spinning off in the distance.

I noticed that too, bet that's going to cost. I always wondered how well a wind turbine would hold up in a storm.

I was driving through Waverly on Sunday. It was pretty bad where I was, but looked much worse and much more spectatular to the south. Are these from Sunday?
