My good friend went on a walking tour of Plainfield, IL with his video camera to capture tornado devastation on September 1, 1990. This clip is from near St. Mary's Catholic Church. Index of all the clips is at roytaylor dot info.
I was about a block away in a house on Frederick St. One corner of the house was ripped out, and the roof was lifted off and dropped back on. Don't remember most of it, even though I was awake and conscious.
Nice thick midwestern accent, haircut and shorts loser! Haha I grew up in Plainfield a few years after the tornado. All the kids I grew up with would start to cry and piss their pants whenever it would start to rain! What a bunch of pussies!!
this video is stupid because i don't really care what happened to you're church.

That was an F5 and I lived about 5 miles north of the path and didn't see any damage where I lived.

I can remember this dominating the airtime on local newscasts. Pretty obvious why.

What F rating did they give this? I remember this happening, but don't remember what rating was given to this tornado. Maybe F-4?
