Storm restoration in Galva
Galva is a city of about 2,400 in Henry County, anchored in the rolling farmland of northwest-central Illinois where the Quad Cities NWS office tracks one of the state's more active tornado records. The county has logged 69 tornado events through 2024, and a February 2024 EF1 near Annawan registered winds at 110 mph.
