I almost forgot - cell phone pictures of the August 27 Durham Tornado are up. Take a gander if you want. The rotation of the clouds and the impressions of said rotation upon lowly human witnesses cannot be communicated through still pictures. Sadly, no video of this event exists as I neglected to take my video camera to work even though I knew the chances of severe weather were very high. Be prepared. I was not. Worst yet I did not report this even to NC Skywarn. I'm still new to the HAM radio thing and was not sure of the proper reporting protocols. I should have just pressed the key and told Skywarn what I was seeing. Next time this happens I'll remember to bring my camera AND my confidence.
