Wow!! that’s awesome! thanks for these. i was stuck in a windowless room through all of this and didn’t get to see

Wow, you could definitely see some rotation there. I guess it could not pull together enough at this point to make a tornado.

Great video! It would have been a disaster if a tornado was on the ground for a while. There actually was a report of a touch-down in Cary.

wow that’s scary… if a tornado wipes out raleigh, im moving back where i came from!

Wow… scary stuff!

How much time does this movie represent?

I am speechless about this video. Totally awesome. The NWS would just LOVE this video. Towards the end of the video, as the rotation passed our skyscrapers, this supercell was actually producing (we think). Whatever the case, this is awesome video, you should consider chasing sometime! As evidenced recently, there is significant weather for people to chase around here.

P.S. Are you a SKYWARN spotter? I am. Have been for about a month now.

Can’t make comments on the video, but the photo does look scary. Hopefully, nobody was showing any condos to potential buyers at the RBC Plaza

Thanks for sharing your work, Matt… It is much appreciated, as always

Just managed to see the video and it was scary, to say the least. Amazing footage!!!

I didn’t turn my radio on in my car until I was almost dead in the middle of all that. It is scary yet thrilling to look at the video and see what I was almost in the middle of. My “first encounter” with weather like this. Like a previous poster, I would like to know the time elapsed on the video. It was awesome watching the rain coming from the left of the screen to the right…

What’s the total time lapsed over in that video? Looks like just 2-3 minutes. That’s a ton of motion to be covered in just a couple of minutes.

This video is condensed from 12 minutes to 45 seconds… so about 16x speed. The middle portion of the video is impressive even at real time.

Ari, I’d consider myself a casual chaser. I’ve been out the the plains several years with my brother (who has been chasing for over 15 years). Here is a link to my 2007 report with some tornado photos:

Lovely pics!!! HOW ABOUT THOSE CAROLINA HURRICANES!!!!!!!!!!!

This was pretty sweet, I agree, reminds me of the Canes and their roll in the playoffs.
