Yes, I believe much of that is explained in his interview that can also be found on the NGM site link above...

It is great research that he is doing and Tim is doing a great job!
 
Thanks for all of the kind comments. It has certainly been a challenge.

That "thingie" that moves across camera 2 and 3 appears to be some sort of a corn bin. I have found similar looking things in farmer's fields. It looks like a hopper with four wheels. When I have time, I'll post a frame grab for all to look at.

I do know its moving......rather quickly.

Darren:

Indeed, one needs to know the distance to calculate the velocity of moving objects, and also knowing the lens distortion (if any) that might affect these measurements.

Now...would someone PLEASE send us a few tornadoes, and get us out of this horrible pattern?


:?

Ahh... A cornbin would make a lot of sense beings in your video the farm in the background did have what I believe were cornbins tore apart. Some of those are quite big, yet it wouldn't take to much to rip them apart. I've seen it done by only 80-90 mph winds...

As for this pattern, I would be glad to get rid of it for you Tim.. IF I could... :roll:
