Durring the filming of this storm and spectacular lightning show, I was sending my mom this film as she was anxious to see the lightning storm that I had taken. When She still framed some of the shots I had taken, little did I know I captured what appeared to be a tornado! It dropped from the sky and may have possibly touched down as when one bolt of lightning hit it shook the ground hard. I was not aware that this was what I caught in durration of the 10 minute video. These are the still shots. There is one more being submitted.
