Kinda felt that the previous edit pulled you out of the time with the modern cars. Here's one that could've actually happened.

Saturday Morning #iawx as an MCS rolled through
Iowa certainly had its share of SLCs (scary looking clouds) this Saturday morning! Strong thunderstorms produced heavy rain, gusty winds, and even a brief radar confirmed tornado in the Hawkeye state. Severe weather chances will linger in the Midwest to end the weekend. #IAwx

Additional storms with heavy rain may bring 1-2" of rain over a short time period tonight into Sun AM. Rainfall could potentially exceed 5" in isolated areas into Sun. The greatest flash flood potential exists between roughly US-20 and US-34 with a flood watch in effect into Sun.
More rounds of storms are expected thru Sunday. Additional storms are expected tonight into Sunday. A few of these thunderstorms could be severe. The main threats are frequent lightning, strong winds, and torrential rainfall leading to localized flash flooding. Stay aware!
⛈️An MCS, or mesoscale convective system, is ongoing over Iowa and the corn Belt. It will move through the Midwest and produce sporadic damaging gusts. MyRadar meteorologist @MatthewCappucci has a brief update.
