The area had been under both a tornado and an areal flood watch Wednesday afternoon, the former of which will last until 7 p.m. ET. “Look how strong it is!” Timmer said while filming the wedge tornado. “Listen to the roar!”

Such a good viddy, I could actually see the effects of the wind in the background too. They were in the right place at the right time. Great viddy 👀👍❗
