That thing was massive it took everything away from us in less than 30 seconds. I had 8 cracked ribs laceration on my liver and fracture of middle vertebrae in my back paralyzed for two weeks and finally got to where I could walk on a walker for the next 8 months before I could stand on my own but Iam blessed Iam and my wife son and my dad and mom are still alive today. It took five peoples lives within rock throwing distance of where my house used to be I just want to say Thank you lord for sparing our lives that day AMEN AMEN AND AMEN
I would have bet the farm that was a tornado and coming to camera man. Then it disapated and what was happening out there I have no clue. I do wish someone with experience with supercells could answer a question I have wondered about a couple years . Some supercells and I have noticed this around the storm life period when wall cloud began to be noticeable lowering. This storm behind tornado at beginning is a prime example of my question. Behind tornado at start is I believe a tail cloud . Notice how it and at times area near tornado and after almost touch whatevers growing . It looks like you could reach up out there and touch the bottom of supercell . I ve noticed this not with all but many. Some it looks like you can touch wall cloud. Is this just an illusion or are they that low to ground. Thank you.
They do get very low to the ground with massive wedges. Sometimes the wall cloud itself is just 600 1,000 feet off the ground. The “beaver tail” is from the tornado pulling and stretching condensation from the air.
This video is breathtaking. I grew up in Ider and my family still lives there. They were lucky as it passed by about a mile to the east of their house. I was at work in Rainsville when it hit there.
You do. There was a tornado visible that disapated then I have no clue what was going on out there but it was wild and I m not sure I seen anything quite like this. If anyone can explain what s happening during this video I d appreciate a reply. Thanks.
it looks like its close to pea ridge, right before it lifted my grandparents old house from its foundation. nothing but a slab left. they lived on hwy 117 heading toward ider

Unreal vantage point on this tornado. Thanks for posting.

This video provides a good view of the supercell structure.
The structure on that storm is sick!
I believe that this was the Rainsville EF5... Nice footage.
this tornado went through the entire state of alabama
Officially, no, because there was a gap in the path, but practically speaking, you're right. It was an insane storm.

Wow, thanks for posting this.. I live at high point near henagar and this thing hit my home.
I remember that... I lived in Alabama at this point and that was NOT a fun, ordinary day.
Must be scary to witness a tornado so remote in the woods.
Do I hear a roar? :O

When it disapates it starts looking like a rain bomb. I.
have never seen anything like that. Then it starts sounding like a tornado again.
I'm not all too sure it was dissipating, rather than becoming rain wrapped.
Wow.....I too live in Mentone, that was a very angry looking sky there! Thanks for sharing this with us.
