Kirksville/Edina, MO Tornado on May 13, 2009

This is my video from the Kirksville, MO supercell that produced a tornado in Kirksville and north of Edina, MO on May 13, 2009.

I was stationed approximately 2 miles north of Edina for most of this video, and the damage video was taken along state route 15.

I was chasing this day with Andrew Glenn, L.B. LaForce and Bill LaForce

I am a storm chaser based in Norman, OK but originally from Lansing, MI. You can visit my website at http://www.michiganstormchaser.com for more information about me and full accounts from my past storm chases including video and pictures.

omg that almost looks like a time lapse in the beginning! ive never seen clouds move that fast before!

That was realtime! I hadn't seen rapid upward motion like that before either.. I had seen pretty good, but not like that!

Look at the inflow into the meso at the start of the video with the sirens in the background. That's amazing stuff....
