One of the great tornado videos. You captured the essence of the approach of the tornado, some really terrific views as the tornado hit, and the aftermath.

I was only 15 miles away from C-ville when this happened God bless the ones who were closer

i lived behind the high school in the yellow house and firefighters couldnt even get to us......2 houses were in the middle of both roads completely desrtoyed......we had no high scool and in most cases no homes ......took a while to get bak on our feet but things are going great now and most people have cellars now haha

makes me so sad to see the school like that :( My mom taught there for a long time (Ms. Lloyd the high school art teacher). I have such fond memories of hanging around the high school while waiting on her to grade papers. And Knox's drive in fed me most nights. So sad.

@AceFighter10 The houses may not be leveled but they are total loss's. They are not salvageable
This is a award winning video. Excellent in all ways. I have been to Caruthersville many times and I want to send a thanks to all volunteers and community for all the help that was brought to this town. God Bless you all.

it sounds cool to have ur school destroyed, but it delays everything. we didn't get to play any football or basketball games at home this year and our graduation is delayed.

the damage to me would put this twister here an F2 or F3 houses were still intact and i havent seen any buildings completly destroyed like an F4 or F5 would do. another chaser would probably say this as well

channel 8 news had it posted as an F4, i didnt get all the footage that i needed. there were parts of our town that were completely destroyed.
