So this happened last night,

After the tornado sirens stopped and worst passed I had to check out the airport.

Despite two adjacent T hangar doors wide open immediately next to my bay, nothing was damaged. Leaving the hangar doors wide open seems like a great way to reduce the structural integrity of row of T hangars. We got lucky, I don't think there was any major damage on the airport.

The one on its tail is around 22k pounds empty, it was parked a ways away from that grass.

News reported peak winds were 87 MPH at the airport.

I saw more pictures of that jet on FB, but they wouldn't say where it happened.
 
I was in Omaha yesterday. Looks like I got out just in time.:yingyang::fcross:
 
Could have been much much worst but there you have it
