An F2 tornado touches down on the edge of Johnson County without much advance warning from the National Weather Service. The Johnson County disaster preparedness plan is implemented, but it has not been tested for over 3 years.

Nurse Judy and nursing student Madison arrive at the command center to volunteer, but they have to wait for some time to receive their assignment.
