After driving up from southern Oklahoma, we were treated to a BEAST of a supercell which had inflow winds of 70mph (110km/h) which snapped power poles and unroofed houses.

As we raced south and east, strong rotation developed nearly overhead (the video is awesome). A small funnel developed not too far from us - this photo is as it was dissipating.
