Multiple funnel clouds spotted - Louisville Ky Part 1

Around 7:30 pm on June 22 2011, an unusual storm with little or no lightning had caused a tornado warning from the NWS. I decided to grab my Sony HDR-CX110 and jump in the car to see it there was anything I could see from a hilltop in Bullitt Co. All I really noticed at a BIG cloud and nothing bad from where I was. I was going to head back home. I kept listening to 84 WHAS on the radio. The weather play by play was from Wave 3 NBC in Louisville.

Thank you Andy and Kevin!!

@SuperBTRForever I try to stay calm. It's the grown up in me. I was scared out of my mind.

@NinerPoolGirl I guess so. It was a bit scary at times.

@kycruisecrazy I was at BD's on hurstbourne that night.. Got there about 7:30 and about 10 minutes later, all hell broke loose; and there wasn't a cloud in the sky when I first got there.. Anyway, I had NO idea there was a funnel cloud over liquor barn while I was there.. All I know, it just got dark really fast.. Think I did 60 all the way home down taylorsville road constantly asking "Please God, get me home safe"

If you had continued down the Watterson you would have passed me, I was chasing the storm staying to the southwest of it.

@kycruisecrazy how were you able to film this and drive at the same time? Amazing!

[NinerPoolGirl]

@kycruisecrazy just now.. I'm cracking up that they're talking to my Friend, Michael on there.. Telling him to be careful out there and it's not safe to be out; HAHA.. If only they knew!
