Tornado Chase 4-16-06 in Illinois

Back


I captured a tornado on video ...just got around to cleaning it up. Official text from National Weather Service: The first of the Coles County tornadoes touched down at 5:15 pm in an open field, one mile south of Humboldt. It was sighted, photographed, and videotaped from 3 separate locations. It crossed I-57, and damaged an outbuilding 1/4 mile east of I-57. The tornado continued east across an open field for 1.5 miles. It damaged 2 outbuildings near the intersection of county roads 1000E and 1400N. The tornado moved east-southeast across open fields, until it dissipated 5 miles southeast of Humboldt. The tornado lasted for 8 minutes, from 5:15 to 5:23 pm, and was on the ground for 5 miles. It was rated as F1 on the Fujita Scale, with estimated peak wind of 100 mph.
