Some really quite good footage here. The nthn hemisphere storm systems are 180o out of phase!!! Vortex 2 should be chasing across the Atlantic.

They're standing at a big window, steadily filming a tornado coming straight for them...that's crazy! But it is great footage.

Why stop!! I love the multi-vorticies! Unbelievable! That shows just how incredible tornadic behaviour can be so long as it does not call people and damage property. Wonderful!

I wish I could speak Russian!! That is totally awesome!! I never realised how strong this tornado was - maybe EF2 to EF3 range?
