On the off chance that anyone is interested I thought Id post it here. I took 2 pics and spliced them together, the crazy/amazing part is that the pic on the left was taken just 8 seconds after the pic on the right. It is incredible how much that storm grew in just 8 seconds. Note that you can see the same plane twice.

EDIT: Whoa, that was way too big. Here is a thumbnail and a link to the full sized pic.

Yeah that was nuts. I took some video of that funnel cloud from my back deck. It was pretty close to town!

Neat to watch but a little scary to consider what could happen if it had touched down.

I guess since we lack any trailer parks out here in Langdon it decided to leave us alone.
