Started the day in Kearny, NE thinking the show was going to be further east on I-80. At 1pm was heading back west towards the McCook area again. Ended up missing the cells W of US 283, and headed back E on I-80.
While on I-80 I had to pass through the SVR warned cell near Stockham. Before entering the cell all of the winds were strong from the south and there was no sign of rotation on radar. After entering the cell the winds shifted from the north, and the cell went TOR warned. I realized this was going to be a core punch. After exiting the core directly to my S near MP 338 there was a tornado in the field.
I exited I80 at the next exit, MP 342, and proceeded north to intercept again. During the time the Bradshaw tornado formed.

The video is choppy at first, as it is a new camcorder, and I hadn't made friends with it yet.
I followed the tornado for almost its entire life and got it roping out. About the 4m mark in the video you can see the damage path.
Afterwards, there wasn't anything in the area, and the cells in sw NE were to far away before dark so it ended the day on a high note.
