The thing with tornadoes is that the most severe damage is very localized. For instance, one side of the street will have roofs entirely missing while the other side of the street will have some minor siding damage or maybe no damage at all. The path of the funnel cloud is sometimes narrow.

@rather-dashing True, until you get an EF5 like they had in Joplin Missouri last Spring. that tornado was nearly 1 mile wide for part of it's track. Fortunately for us all they are rare. There have been only 8 EF5's since February 2007 in the U.S.

Amazing footage. I have to say, I think your Sister is the smart one in that bunch! LOL Glad it didn't come over your place and sorry for those who suffered the most. You may have read about the EF5 that went through Joplin Mo. last Spring. Over a Billion dollars in damages and more than 155 killed in the city. It's best to git to the cellar now!

Kudos to the men for keeping their heads - good stuff. Seeing something like this coming towards you is a real "oh shit" moment in life - they are lucky they weren't directly in its path.
