Incoming Storm video recorded on Tuesday April 20,2011

This video was taken on Tuesday April 20. Further weather details are in the video. I have only had access to a video recorder for a short time and it never fails that we get storms after dark. I hope you can see some of the storm. After this video was shot and I came back in the house, I noticed that they had upgraded us to a tornado warning.Many parts of the state lost electricity and had a lot of damage, we were lucky. I am still hoping to get a video of a storm when there is still some daylight.

Saturday, April 16, 2011...video of incoming storm



Hello class, It has been awhile since I have posted. I have not been feeling well. Well I had a hard time finding a video camera so I just updated my phone and used that recorder. The quality is not that great, but when I used a higher resolution it would not upload to youtube. This video was taken on Friday April 15th, 2011. It was taken in my front yard in Robinson, IL. I give many more details of the incoming storm on the video.
