    Yes, that was a tornado...

    Tornado caught on video in Amsterdam, NY on Sunday (Sept 4th)



    Longer version of same video.



    She (Linalia) writes on YouTube:

    A tornado crossing I-90 near the Mohawk rest area. I had pulled over to ride the storm out & got much more than I bargained for.

    I want it to be clear that I was NOT in the car because I was planning on hiding from a tornado, I stayed in the car because of the intense cloud-to-ground lightning, the tornado was a surprise.

    The three most famous words spoken when someone see's a tornado... "Oh my God !!".

    I didn't realize the atmosphere over NYS was so unstable yesterday. Round here it was calm, hot, humid all day with sun and nary a shower. This has been a strange summer. Usually we get the bad thunderstorms down this way. Yet they were strangely absent so far and any bad weather was always to our north.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Tornadoes have them all beat, they blow, suck and screw at the same time.

    Come on let's twist again like we did last summer
    Yea, let's twist again like we did last year
    Do you remember when things were really hummin'
    Yea, let's twist again, twistin' time is here
