Textbook supercell structure northwest of Greensburg, KS 4-14-2012

[Andrew Stoller]

I came across this video while looking at footage from the April 14th outbreak in Kansas. I think it possibly might be the best footage showing a rear flank downdraft wrapping around the mesocyclone and resultant clear slot producing an RFD gust front, and tornado-genesis. This supercell I believe went on to produce EF-3 damage.
