The Great Iowa Easter Hail Hunt on a Tornadic Supercell

Video starts on 169 highway just north of 34 highway and caught in the core of the cell that produced the tornadoes near Pleasantville, Iowa. It went from zero to eleven in about 30 seconds. I literally could not see the road in front of my car. Luckily a side road was where I had to stop on the highway due to visibility. As I was on 34 Highway heading east to get back in position I noticed large hail on the roadside. The chase went from tornado focus to zig-zagging the remnant hail core to find the biggest hail. I felt like a kid again searching for Easter eggs. I was just missing my basket. Biggest hail pics were from the Calvary Baptist Bible Church just north of Ocseola, Iowa. Thanks for watching.
