Tornado Spotting

I left dinner at the Uptown to stand at the corner of Kirkwood and College in downtown Bloomington, Indiana, to shoot the tornado my phone just told me had formed eight miles west of there. That’s where I was facing when I shot this video, from which I pulled a bunch of screen grabs in Photos’ edit view. This covered about four minutes starting at 7:03 PM.

Earlier, when we got the first tornado warning, I went out and shot this video, from which I have a similar series of screen grabs:

That was about five minutes, starting at 6:42 PM.

Both these videos and all these screen-grabs are free to use, and Creative Commons licensed to only require photo credit. And I’m also not prickly about that. It’s just fun to see where they prove useful. Have at ’em.

And if you’re interested in news, and how we can start remaking it, starting here in Bloomington and towns like it, see what I’ve been writing about that, with a big hat tip to Dave Askins of Bloomington’s B Square Bulletin.
