On an Oklahoma farm in 1969, young Jo Thornton and her parents take shelter from an F5 tornado that destroys their farm and kills Jo's father.

Dorothy could revolutionize tornado research and potentially provide an earlier storm-warning system, but the device must be deployed dangerously close to a tornado to work.

Jo and Bill take shelter under a bridge, but the truck and one of the four Dorothy prototypes are destroyed.
