I pursued a slow-moving supercell to the north of Amarillo, Texas on June 13th, 2016. After producing a large, rotating wall cloud, the storm proceeded to drop a few funnels, but no tornado, at least for a while. I drove closer to the storm and was able to capture a tornado for a few minutes on video. This video was shot shortly before sunset and was located about 17 miles northeast of Amarillo.
I am a meteorologist and storm chaser who travels around North America documenting, photographing and researching severe weather. I earned a B.S. in Meteorology at Western Connecticut State University in 2009 and my professional weather forecasting experience includes time with The Weather Channel, WTNH-TV and WREX-TV.
