The funnel as it passed through H'Burg. This appears to have been taken at the Clover Leaf Mall looking slightly South of West.

Did Chad Myers of CNN blame the tornado on the “lack of ice” in the Arctic? Seriously, my prayers are up for everyone affected by the storm. I know you can’t judge a tornado’s winds by the funnel shape, but I wouldn’t be surprised by see that one rated as an EF-3.
