I watched it set up from Stampede Park. We were sitting in the infield watching the chuckwagons and we could see the funnel cloud starting - started to drop and then rotate and then the vapour started moving upwards and spinning faster. Unfortunately it then moved north and went behind the main granstand so I couldn't see it - I would guess it hit it's worst when I couldn't see it because whenit came out the other side it was still rotating but not funnelling.
Pretty cool to see from a distance away! My pictures are not nearly as good as those on here.
