June 1, 2011 Springfield MA tornado. Collection of videos found on YouTube placed in chronological order. I did not take any of these, but I did my best to put them in some kind of order that shows how the tornado progressed from Westfield all the way to 16 Acres inSprinfield.

This is a my first draft of the video. I'll be working on the next version.

Videos not include: Union St Car Wash. (Possible legal use issue.)

Contact me if you are interested in helping out and are familiar with the area covered in the YouTube videos.

  • was it a f1?

  • @MrROCKYPEBBLE EF3. It missed being an EF4 by 5 or so MPH.

  • Love the guys who go inside to get "safe" ..... then continue to watch through the two largest picture windows on earth

  • @szulborski20 That footage was taken at Central Chevrolet in West Springfield. Everyone was calm until the storm intensified and caused damage.

  • Great idea, thank you for assembling this. Just to give some perspective, I was wondering if you might be able to list at least some of the locations that appear here.....anyway, thanks for taking the time to do this.

  • @dfunis Thanks for the feedback. I am thinking about adding some text that describes where the tornado is located at the moment in the which the video was taken. I might also add text as to where the camera operator was as well. I am saving this step to a latest draft so I can focus on the video itself for now.

see all
