It is possible to see a tornado without knowing it and confirm it later - e.g., with a photo of a funnel, or a video of rapidly-rotating clouds that go down to the lowest point you can see, that you can match up with other people's footage to confirm what you saw was actually the tornado - but without some sort of marker like that I can't say that your photos include a tornado. Sorry.

*sighs* that thing was really teasing me so badly, that thing was just calling out to me to chase, and yet still haven’t gotten my license yet. I really should focus on getting my license to drive
