Stupidly cored by an intense supercell transitioning into a bow echo and get raked by straight lined winds gusting to 80-90 mph and hail around 1" in diameter. Roofs were ripped from homes, and trees snapped near my location.

Lightning strikes very close to us on a storm chase in western Illinois. Unfortunately I moved the camera seconds before and the actual bolt is not seen on screen. The snap/click heard before the thunder is the electrical current of the bolt, similar to the sound you hear when your finger is shocked while touching something. When you hear this sound, you are too close!
Intercept of a severe thunderstorm near the Quad Cities in Eastern Iowa. Damage was reported near our location due to the high straight lined winds. Horse shoe vortex was also noted in the early portion of the video.
