Filmed a tornado from 15-20 miles away west of Oswatomie, KS, just west of the Franklin/Miami County line. It was a truncated cone that roped out beautifully. The structure was the best I've seen since the Greensburg, KS supercell, however much less intense. Pics soon!

I am kicking my own arse because I followed that from South Lyon to Anderson when I stayed on a hill. I turned back and within a minute it must have dropped......... Sickening

I had seen the cone from about 20 miles away on highway 68 between Louisburg and Ottawa.

I was able to manuever right under the storm there soon after. I watched it rotate and I thought it was going to keep its act together. It soon fell apart into almost nothing around Edgerton, Ks.

I will go with Mike and say AWESOME structure on that storm. Excited to see your tornado pics Mike.

A storm cell just got tornado warned for northeast Morris County including the town of Council Grove. I am keeping an eye on this. It is now too dark to take pictures of anything.
