F1 Tornado Near Darien Lake Theme Park in NY

I made this video on 7/25/09 at 8:51 pm. This tornado touch down at 6:03pm in Corfu, NY, near Darien Lake Theme Park. Darien Lake is near Buffalo if you don't know that. No more info is know right now. Apparently, it landed across from the theme park, and work its way up Route 77 (now block off untill further notice) all the way to the 1-90 (Thruway) and ended. Originally, it was two funnel clouds over Oakfield, NY, and fizzeld into one giant one. it is considered to be an F2 tornado. Also, a funnel cloud was reported to be seen in Depew, NY. There are a few minor injuries accoridng to wgrz.com Planty more pics there if you wanna see them. They go for pages. A video of the occurence is veiwable at wivb.com. It is reported that a total of 6 funnel clouds and one Tornado were visable today. You should have seen it. Seroiusly. Were i live it was sunny, not a thing going on, not six miles south of me theres a tornado going!!! Winds where well over 100MPH and destoryed everything for up for 4 miles. As of 11:00, Route 77 is still closed, and no time has been issued for repoening. Commutes tommorow going that way are going to be hectic, becuase of a tree that snapped like a twig across the road, plus loads of power lines. Thank god the Ride of Steel roller coaster didn't go do, as it was swaying from the high winds. it has been said that it is porable that it will need minor repairs as the wind from the F2 twister alsmot knock it over. That last tornado recored in Genesee county was in 1993, in Stafford NY on Route 5 and took out a bridge. In 2001, a twister touched down in the Alabama swaps in Orleans Coutny, in a Tornado in upper Wyoming County in 2006. Please rate and comment. Will update when i recieve new info.

I was told there were 6 other Tornados it those 2 hours.

Tornado safety tip even the world's weakest possible tornado is still by far stronger than the world's strongest human so even if the world's weakest possible tornado is spotted, noticed etc. please seek shelter immediately, thank you.

there was a tornado yesterday in the small town i live in in england, and it was an f1. it was sooo scary, it was pouring down with rain, then there was a huge clap of thunder, then the wind just got stronger and stronger and in the distance u could see this grey funnel cloud just swirling around, i remember seeing a trash can flying through the air but thats all. the only damage it done was uproot a small tree and break some windows, so this tornado is no way an f1!

[MrBaddestofthebad]

this is like an f3. f1s deal minor damage, pushing cars off roads, pulling up signs, maybe smashing windows and destroying small parts of buildings. Unless the building is structurally weak it will not collapse

@InariTheFoxLover sometimes tornados hit but its rare. we had a tornado warning a few days ago and it turned into a tornado warning when it hit fairport ny which is a town 30 minutes away from us. the tornados we get in new york are nothing though anyway
