The National Weather Service has confirmed 10 tornadoes touched down when a fast-moving storm moved through eastern Nebraska and into Iowa.

In Nebraska, the weather service says, two of the tornadoes hit near Hickman in Lancaster County on Monday. Two hit near Eagle -- resulting in eight minor injuries -- and one near Alvo in Cass County.

Two more tornadoes touched down in north-central Nebraska, near Brownlee and O'Neill. They did little damage.

In Iowa, a tornado was confirmed west of Missouri Valley in Harrison County, and two more were in Montgomery County, near Villisca and Sciola.

The weather service says the tornadoes ranged from EF0 to EF2 on the 1-to-5 Enhanced Fujita scale of intensity.
