Severe Storm Footage

Early this evening, 4-13-07, we had some tornado warnings and severe storms. The footage I got looked relatively harmless but that storm caused at least one tornado in the Metroplex.
There was a lot of damage reported and at least one fatality. I am just an amateur and I needed some practice. So I took some footage. There are different sequences. A little hail, some tornado sirens, wind blowing trees, and dark clouds. I'm sure if you search more youtube videos some locals of the DFW area have some similar footage uploaded to the site. Update: This storm caused two fatalities, not one as mentioned in the video. Also it is said that there may have been 3-5 tornadoes involved in the storm.

As you may be able to tell, I was inspired by the movie 'Twister' as I edited this.

I'm not sure. I don't travel much. Maybe you can get a book that talks about climate and find locations with good weather. There really isn't anywhere that doesn't have some kind of weather problem. Florida is sunny but has hurricanes.

What radio station is that?

[shannonm75]

I was listening to a weather radio from NOAA weather forecast in Dallas. You can get a weather radio with NOAA weather at Radio Shack.

You sound like the voice of reason. I was watching a video were someone got hurt and people laughed. You stood out in the crowd and defended that person with a comment, and then you were attacked for it. I appreciate that you stood your ground on what you believe. Thank you for sharing your heart.

Thanks, was that where the kid got hurt on the ride? If so, I thought that was insensitive of all the people that laughed.

Great video, I like how you overlaid the music without totally destroying the original sounds, as seen in some other videos. Good job. 5/5

[YummyilikeCHEese]

i want a storm like that (maybe without the tornados tho) we never get rain or any thing except for dryness

[SuperWeirdvideos]

correct me if im wrong but if u look closely at about 2:25 middle top of the sky i think i see a funnel cloud o.O?

[meloneater34]

cool

[cetras56]

by the way when u sed i cant see the tornado but it must be close that actually means there were sightings of rotation in the storm and there is a extremely high chance of a tornado it doesnt always mean that there is actually a tornado and by the way good video for less experience
