Hit by a Tornado near WaKeeney, Kansas

Video showing us 'unintentionally' getting hit by the WaKeeney EF-1 Tornado that hit on May 22nd, 2008. At 2:47 the tornado hits our vehicle. Our VORTEX anemometer recorded winds of 176km/hr (110mph) before it was destroyed. We also intercepted the Quinter, KS EF-4 Tornado too, but it's hard to see in the video because the visibility was bad because it was quite hazy and humid.

@LaserSWE He noted that the wind figures were kilometers per hour....so it factored to @ 110mph. ....which was the maximum gust.

I'd Pressure point hit the guy who says don't drive or "keep looking at it!" and hit the accelerator.
