trying to get more precise. nearest intersection would do. making a map of images from across the path. I understand if it's private.

courageous footage! how much would a weather channel guy get paid for this? yet, we provide the best content on the web and see zero of the economic value!

Good point, Michael! Time for Vimeo to provide a way to monetize our content.

Oh, man. This person is brave. They did what a brave person must do. They shared this monster with the world. They could have run but didn't. Admirable, truly admirable. Now we can better understand the power of these storms. Think of the wind flow, upwards, what is driving it, water condensation releasing tremendous heat. Who could have predicted this kind of thing could ever exist.

The breathing adds intensity, my prays for the victims.

Thanks for protecting Vimeo from videos that are below your personal standards, guy. You're truly doing God's work.

That's some hard breathing in the background. I think we can safely say SCARY. I doubt I'd have had my camera out. I'd have wet my pants and dived for cover ;')
