HUGE Hackleburg Tornado, April 27, 2011, EF-5 at Athens / Madison

This Tornado is so HUGE that it fills the screen from left to right!! In the first shot , when you begin to see very defined white and black streamers, the tornado is passing over the Tennesse River and pulling up tons of water. Even though this tornado was still 2.5 miles from me in the second shot, the edges of the tornado are at the extreme edges of the screen. THE TORNADO WAS ESTIMATED TO BE 3/4 MILES WIDE with 210 mph wind speeds! This is a video of the most violent tornado during the April 27, 2011 outbreak. It is known as the Hackleburg Tornado, because it started just SW of Hackleburg, AL. It was one of the longest running tornados in history. From Hackleburg it continued through Phil Campbell, near Moulton, just north of Trinity and Decatur, across the Tennessee River, just south of Tanner, across Mooresville Road and Hwy72, on to East Limestone County and Capshaw, and Harvest and finally petered out across the state line in TN. This tornado had 210 mph winds, injured 100 and killed 18. As the video begins, the camera is pointed west and the tornado is near Tanner. The second shot is pointed north as it passes over Hwy 72 and moves into East Limestone County. The video was taken around 4:30pm. The Tuscaloosa tornado was an EF-4 with 190mph winds and was 1.5 miles wide. This Hackleburg tornado was an EF-5 with 210mph winds and was 3/4 mile wide. http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bmx/?n=event_...
