These Alabama tornadoes are insane. I fear a final death toll in the hundreds, which is very rare for tornado outbreaks in the U.S., but seems plausible given the evident power and size of the tornadoes, and the population density of the areas affected (Tuscaloosa and Birmingham in particular). Anyway, I’ve posted a bunch of videos on my main blog. The above clip was evidently taken by a crazy person, frankly, who is lucky to be alive.
